Just a quicky... The WSS 3.0 tools for Visual Studio have been updated. Version 1.2 hasn't got any new features (as far as I can tell after examining it for 5 minutes) other then support for Visual Studio 2008!   So download it here: click and uninstall VS 2005 ;-)

A few weeks ago I helped out on a project creating some featureeventreceivers to dynamically add webparts to pages.

Just last week when I was having my vacation a blogpost was put up on the Sharepoint blog announcing it's arrival!   It's included within the MOSS SDK, which you can download here.   I'm going to play with this and compare it to the BDC Meta ...

Through Arpan Shah's blog I found out the SDK's are updated!

In an ASP.NET 2.0 website created for a customer, I've run into a strange problem: the app-pool crashes every now and then. There's no errormessage in the eventlog and the logging-mechanism in the website doesn't get a chance to log the problem, because of the app-pool crash.
