Visual Studio 2008 RTM Bit Me!

So I went home Tuesday night with the downloaded RTM bits in hand prepped for a late night install. The download experience was excellent: it took all of about 10-15 minutes to pull it all down while in the office - couldn't wait. And I had it prior to the onslaught of VS bits on the wire that must have...

Visual Studio 2008 and Netfx 3.5 Released!

So Rob Bagby sent over an email that stopped me in my tracks titled "VS2008 RTM today". Well, I intended to spend time with my mother-in-law while she's out this week but sorry Grammy (as the kids call her) - I'm going to be locked in the office. Oh heck, I can put it off for a few days. Nah, who am...

Tim posted something on Facebook recently (I think in the last couple of nights) hinting that some big news was possibly coming: I assumed it would be Microsoft related. So this morning I looked through my feeds and both Scott Guthrie and Heuer dropped "it" in public. The .NET Framework...

We'll be at Desert Code Camp This Weekend

Should have gotten the word out sooner, of course, but better late than never - right. Bennie and I've been cramming a bit: it's been an exercise in designing an enterprise .NET 3.x reference architecture in about a week and a half while juggling the clients and family commitments. Well ...

What Happened to the WCF Configuration Editor Context Menu in Orcas Beta 2?

You can, however, wire it up given a quick trick. From the Tools menu choose WCF SvcConfigEditor and immediately close the editor. Until...

Orcas Multi-targeting - Feature Complete

I intended to post about this a couple of months ago and am finally getting around to it. Good news though - my un-posted solution was already in the pipeline, it seems, and multi-targeting is now feature complete.
