Well, well, well… Microsoft has released two new “things”…
First, you can all enjoy the official 1.0 release of ASP.NET MVC by downloading it from the Microsoft Download Center.
I must say that I’m not really thrilled about it, because I’m already enjoyng an excellent MVC framework for ASP.NET called ProMesh.NET. It’s lightweight, open source and a perfect match with the open source ORM CoolStorage.NET. Both projects will become part of the Vici Project collection of free tools.
Of course I’ll try out ASP.NET MVC, but I must say I expect it to be “too much, too heavy”. I like it to be no-nonsense and lightweight.
Second… The horror of Internet Explorer continues… Microsoft released the 8.0 version of their web browser. As a real opposer to Internet Explorer I will not install it to use as my daily web browser, but I need it to test my web applications. You want to download it and install it out of free will, please visit the Internet Explorer homepage.
