Ireland .Net Developers Alliance - Important session on the 22 of November
This talk explores the state of the art of web services. We start with a tour of the major emerging WS-* web services standards – some of which are stable and some are still in flux. We examine how they are likely to be composed to build future service oriented architectures. Microsoft WSE 2.0 is an extension to .NET that provides a rich implementation of stable web service standards. It offers excellent support for web service security, policy, conversations, addressing and diverse transports. We cover what WSE 2.0 has to offer .NET developers and how to use it today in building flexible web services. -

ASP.Net 2.0 Guerilla session
I launch a new idea and I hope it will works. I am going to put 10 members of Ireland .Net Developers Alliance user group in a room sometime in December for about 3 to 4 hours building a website (not to be released !) following a basic scenario.
What I want to get from that is a better idea on .Net 2.0. What we like and what we dislike. We will send our feedback to Microsoft Redmond, I will surely blog about this and see what answers we can get from there.
I am not sure if we can get a beta 2 (I can dream :-)) but I will try to include some SQL 2005 tests too.
So if you are interested (you need a laptop) and in Dublin let me know. Maybe some other user groups would like to do the same ? -
