Check Out MSDN's New Center: Designing .NET Class Libraries

Having strong interests in the middle-tier, and good object design, I thought this site looked pretty promising:

Designing .NET Class Libraries
http://msdn.microsoft.com/netframework/programming/classlibraries/

Many people in the .NET User Group community have asked for some guidance in this area, and I thought this site would help fill the void.  The site includes video and chat transcripts for 14 essential topics, including:

  • Introduction
  • Naming COnventions
  • Rich Type System
  • Member Types
  • Designing Inheritance Hierarchies
  • API Usability
  • Designing Progressive APIs
  • CLR Performance Tips
  • Designing for a Managed Memory World
  • Understanding Interoperability
  • Packaging, Assemblies and Namespaces
  • FxCop in Depth
  • Enabling Development Tools
  • Security
  • Q&A

Keep checking back on a regular basis, each video and chat transcript will be added to the site once per week.
