We made the switch from VSS to SubVersion last night and, so far so good.  We were hitting up against VSS limitations with branching and merging and SubVersion looks like it can handle this better.  It's going to take a while to get use to the whole 'a file is not locked' concept but in theory we like the idea.

Mike Gunderloy blogged about TimeSprite. I downloaded it and thus far the results have suprised me.

This exception message has caused us problems. Long story made short, we see this with a remote .net assembly running under IIS 6.0 on a 2003 Server with SP1 and the calling client is an XP machine.  It seems SP1 installs a never version of System.Data.dll.  There is a hot fix for this, though the hotfix does not resolve the issue, it only gives the calling client a more meaningful message.  

I stumbled on this by mistake. I had a case where I was setting ErrorProviders text (calling SetError and passing in the control with text)  on a controls whose Visible property was set to True at runtime.

Just received my complimentary copy of Brian's book.  Nice to see he thanked me in his Acknowledgments section.  Having read the book once pre-publishing it will be neat to read it again after my review to see what was revised.
