It's time for a pile of "Hanselminutes on 9" Episodes, Dear Reader! Recently, I spent a day wandering around building 42 trying to dig up the scoop on Visual Studio 2010 and ASP.NET 4. In this episode, I talk to Scott Hunter, ASP.NET Program Manager and additional Scott (Microsoft likes to keep at least a dozen extra Scotts in stock, in case of emergency.) You may remember Scott Hunter from his work on the Wildcat! BBS. Now he brings his forward-thinking and innovation to ASP.NET 4! ANSI Art FTW!
Be sure to check out ALL the Hanselminutes on 9 videos.

I love Scott Hanselman interviews, keep them coming. I always learn something. In this I learned, there is a grand plan and why it unfolds the way it does.

Very cool!

Thanks,

Wildcat is a little after my time. I used to run a customized RBBS on an IBM PC a really long time ago.

Making a Visual Studio project template is fairly easy. Just zip up your project files, write a .vstemplate XML file which is basically a manifest listing the files in your project, and replace your project-specific text with tokens like $safeprojectname$, $safeitemname$, etc.

So when does that Canned Bing (see the middle can in the video, to the left of the Diet Coke) come out of internal testing and hit CTP?
