On that note... they're bringing jQuery (OSS Javascript framework) into
the ASP.NET paradigm UNALTERED! That's right--they've admitted that they
can't do better than the jQuery folks, and they're going to adopt it
AS-IS.

That made me very excited... especially since I've recently fallen in
love with jQuery, and I am forced to use ASP.NET at work (though, to the
chagrin of this list, I will admit: I like the .NET framework. A lot).

Anyway, just thought I'd put the idea out there that not every person at
Microsoft follows the "find idea, FUBAR idea, repackage idea" mindset.
:) Their ASP.NET/VS crew has actually been pretty forward-thinking as of
late.

*cough* ... but, you know... PHP rules, too, and junk.
