Weblogs.asp.net and www.asp.net Under New Management

submitted by wisemx 8 days, 20 hours ago

weblogs.asp.net — I just learned that our favourite Microsoft community sites (www.asp.net, www.iis.net, www.silverlight.net, and www.windowsclient.net) are under new management.

At that time, Rob's original code was downloadable from the late GotDotNet site. read more...
