C# Coding standards (from Lance Hunt)

Lance Hunt has released 'C# Coding Standards v1.13'. Very well worth reading through it (its only 20 pages) - especially, if you are new to the 'C#' language or from a VB background. I mention the latter because I have seen C# code from former VB developers that make their code look like VB by obsessively using 'getters/setters' for one! This is not meant to disparage VB developers but C# has a style and standard of its own.

Good job Lance and many thanks!

Bloggers (posts, last update) column in 'weblogs.asp.net'
I noticed a change in the left-most column of 'weblogs.asp.net' main page. It doesn't appear to be sorted by 'number of posts' but appears to be random! Any thoughts on this?

Downtown Boston .NET User Group meeting yesterday

Yesterday, I attended the Downtown Boston .NET User Group meeting held at Adesso Systems' office. Robert Hurlbut gave a presentation on 'Code Access Security in .NET' (unfortunately, I missed the last 10 minutes of it as I had to get the Greyhound back to Hartford). I hope to convince our local .NET group to have Robert to make the presentation here as well.

An added benefit of attending yesterday was to finally meet *the* .NET doyen, Sam Gentile. His knowledge about .NET is quite remarkable and his coding talents, quite legendary. I also got to see Phil Stanhope - the last time I saw Phil was at the Groove Developer conference back in March.

I took some pictures of the meeting and will post them here soon.
