One of the very few annoying things about ASP.NET is that there is no convenient binary in which to store CLR version metadata for side by side execution. Therefore, you have to use the command line ASPNET_REGIIS utility. Or at least, you had to until Denis Bauer built the ASP.NET Version Switcher utility. I’ve added it to my tool list.

I’ve made a private update to WSS RSS. The new build supports both dc:date and pubDate. Sorry Don, not enough news aggregators grok dc:date yet. Also, the new version filters expired items from the RSS feed. I’m not releasing this build – I don’t think 5 lines of code qualifies as a point release. If you want it, email me. Otherwise, I’m working on have UI support in v0.4.

I’m looking forward to seeing Simon Fell’s RSS Web Parts. Makes a nice addition to WSS RSS (which does work in SPS as well). I haven’t had any time to pick through the new .NET Web Parts technology – I’m hoping Simon releases code for his RSS web parts.
