Re: How to best prepare for asp.net 2.0 release in advance?



Hi Steve:

Just filling in on a couple points:

3) I think this is a high probability.

5) Like Kevin said, I'd try moving to the RC now - but I wouldn't put
it near a production machine unless you are prepared to reformat and
start from scratch to get the RTM version on. Try a spare machine or a
Virtual PC.
