Whidbey indentation changes
I ran across this post recently which mentions that the default indentation character for Whidbey has changed from tabs to spaces for the default C# profile. I'm not sure I like the sound of that. Now, I'll admit I'm a tab guy, not a space guy, but that's not my concern. Won't we end up with a mess of mixed indentation styles as we edit existing code? Sounds potentially very ugly. I realize that you can set the option back to tabs, but I'll bet most people won't.

Visual Studio .NET Add-in for the PInvoke.NET web site
Adam Nathan has posted a VS.NET add-in to gotdotnet.com that lets you easily find and insert PInvoke signatures directly into your code, using the PInvoke.net web site as its data source. Bugger! I had already started writing a similar add-in for my entry to Roy Osherove's add-in contest. Guess I'll have to come up with something else.
