Wow, what a year. Not exactly what I'd expected. Before I dive into where we are now, let me preface this post by saying I have NOT forgotten ClubStarterKit! Although I was not the original author, I feel like it's my baby. I can't just forget about it. Not going to happen. You might be quick to point...

It's been almost a year since I started the ClubStarterKit project as an open source project up on Codeplex . Since then, we've released Version 2, which added functionality to the original starter kit, and the first Beta of Version 3, which tried to change the data architecture with SubSonic.

It's been quite a while (2 months actually) since I announced the creation of the SubSonic ASP.NET Providers .

I am going to start spreading the goodness of SubSonic. I think SubSonic is sometimes overlooked for flashy things such as LINQ and Project JASPER. SubSonic is in a transition point (which is apparent when reading Rob Conery's blog ), but I think the project still has tons of momentum and is an INVALUABLE...

The title says it all. That’s right, I’m back on ClubStarterKit. I’ve tried to assure the CSK community in past blog posts that it isn’t dead. In the last year, I’ve done a lot of thinking and outside programming. I’m FINALLY in a position where I have really progressed in terms of project management...
