I've been checking out the Sharepoint content on this years teched, and some of the hands-on labs might be somewhat interesting. My major interest regarding sharepoint these days, however, is how to design the Portal architecture. How do you efficiently design the relationship between SPS and WSS and how can automatic generation of WSS sites support structured growth of the portal.

Settled on the premises and online with just a minor hassle I'm well into the pre-conf session on BizTalk:

Ever wondered why some developers triggers builds slightly faster than others when checkin into a CruiseControl.NET monitored Visual SourceSafe database?

A couple of weeks ago I took the Microsoft CRM Customization Certification, probably as the first in Norway. Internally we've been starting up a dog-fooding project and today I started working with a client that are implementing Microsoft CRM in the current project.

Took me just about the entire evening browsing through all the sessions on the event site.

Sometimes I tend to subconciously embark on a dual exploration. Much like trying to kite-surf for the first time, while reading a book of Salman Rushdie in urdu. You'll get there eventually, but the combined tasks will together take a lot more time.

Took me a week to notice, but CruiseControl.NET 0.6.1 is now released. New features include auto-get of VSS source code (man that took me a while to realize was missing from the last release), support for ClearCase plus support for a light-weight integration with devenv (VS.NET) to avoid using NAnt for smaller projects. The devenv feature makes testing kinda hard so they also included possibilities for running NUnit directly aswell.
