I like the Version and update information tool. It's been a challenge to keep Visual Studio up to date. I wish that all the updates came through the same channel, like the extension manager.

Well this is going to be interesting! I'm sure the floors of the P&P group are covered with hair that has been pulled out of heads. With the rapid clip of change, making sense of it all must surely present some challenges.

The link to Jon Galloway's 10 Things ASP.NET Developers Should Know About Web.config Inheritance and Overrides, is very much appreciated.

@brianbec: Or better yet, it seems that getting a plain text dump of wikipedia, isn't so difficult.

@brianbec: I'm looking for a good word frequency list, and this is what I've found.  Code soon to follow, I hope.

This is a really good session, and I didn't even care for JavaScript! It seems that much of this interop stuff has been thought out fairly well, compared with offerings from other vendors.

So, when can we get one of those Asus tablets?

@MagicAndre1981: I've never run into anyone that set their Clear Page File At Shutdown flag without knowing what it does or what it impacts. Then again, I don't have to deal with people that tattoo their face, put hot sauce in the wrong hole, or perform other inexplicable acts upon themselves.

@dentaku: What are you talking about? They totally succeeded in making that unsuccessful show. Was it ill-conceived? Possibly. The biggest problem is that niners are an eccentric bunch. We open tickets on connect and they get closed, often by reason of design. These aren't problems that you can fix with a call-in show.

That said, I would like my BSOD-when-I-run-the-VS2008-profiler-on-an-app-running-in-the-Windows-Mobile-6.5-emulator bug fixed.

I wish that I had a profiler for Windows Mobile 6.5.3. There is only so much optimizing that you can do by putting timers everywhere.

What was the guy using for a database? It certainly wasn't SQL Compact or any other Microsoft database, since they are not supported on Windows Phone 7.

EDIT:

Hey! These guys make a Compact Framework profiler!
