Well done - 9 out of 10.

STILL NO REFACTORING !

Every time someone from Microsoft tells me VB.NET isn't a second class citizen, I say "what about refactoring".. even MS employees like Daniel Moth agree.. the two third party addins for refactoring are (pardon my french) total c**p - they operate in a wierd way and are very unstable and cause GPFs. 11/20/2007 5:22 AM | Howard

PLEASE release Web Deployment Projects ASAP! This is an essential piece that is missing. Other than that, congrats shipping the RTM. It must be a big relief to a lot of people. 11/20/2007 9:27 AM | Speednet

Congrats! This is big news! Doesn't Microsoft want to share the news on their main web site with the world? 11/20/2007 1:27 PM | VBGuy

Hi Howard,

There actually *is* refactoring in Visual Basic (since 2005). It's just a separate free download from DevExpress. They have released a new version for 2008 so you may want to try it: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/vbasic/bb693327.aspx
