While installing Infragistics NetAdvantage in the Toolbox, I encountered an insidious error. Apparently, SQL Server installations tamper with the registry in a way it's not suppose to. Following Chetan's blog posting cured the problem. Thanks Chetan.

Groove the “offline” SharePoint
Wild Bill Simser has a most interesting post about 'The Sad State of Groove add-ons'. I couldn't agree more with Bill. Seeing Groove development for nearly 5 years now and much has changed. The Groove Tools SDK is very much missed by the Groove development community. There has not been much Groove tools (these add-on to the Groove space itself) over the years but the few that were, were quite exceptional. A notable example is CompuTact-Apwiz (a company that I am associated with) - over the past 5 years we have had more tools than Groove Networks itself! As mentioned by Bill - other tools came from Information Patterns & NetSender. There were others (TeamDirection another exceptional one). Groove space add-ons were a very innovative (& much loved) way of enhancing the Groove client. The Groove add-on SDK (with the Visual Studio integration) had won the famed Jolt Award (& Sam Gentile was part of that effort.. :-)
