Conn MS .NET Developer SIG meeting
Last night at the Connecticut .NET Developer SIG meeting, there were two presentations: DataGrid (via ASP.NET) and *Data Binding. Both were very interesting but the latter presentation on *DB by Curt Koppang stole the show. Curt is the local DotNet Guru with cutting-edge topics - his prior presentation a few months back, on Web Services in .NET was another good one.

No Touch Deployment (NTD) in .NET
Looks like NTD is finally seeping through - Builder.com has a reference to it (a brief but good overview). NTD was described within the MSDN and has tremendous potential in enterprise deployments that usually has fairly complex user-interface applications. Will it replace web-based development? I don't know - it remains to be seen. It's certainly well-worth considering for certain type of applications and it also lowers the cost of deployment with added security (using CAS).

Getting MSMQ v3
I finally replaced the RC2 and got the new W2K3 Server up and running. So far, so good - Groove is working well. I have been using WinXP (on my laptop) for some prototyping with MSMQ 3.0, now I can use the W2K3 Server (for more production work). MSMQ v3 is a very significant messaging system, one can use SSL authentication for HTTP/HTTPS messaging. This will help alleviate the 'security fears' of web services as well.
