The Sandcastle Team has announced the Launch of Sandcastle page at MSDN. it seems that last year when Sandcastle was released to the community, the community has requested a website for Sandcastle, well here it is http://www.sandcastledocs.com.

Dominick Baier seems to finish his Feature Complete Version of the ASP.NET CardSpace Control , which is now at version 2.5. The post includes also a small documentation which would help to incorperate the control into your application.

Microsoft ESB Guidance at CodePlex has updated to CTP2 Overview
The Microsoft ESB Guidance provides architectural guidance, patterns, practices, and a set of BizTalk Server and .NET components to simplify the development of an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) on the Microsoft platform and to allow Microsoft customers to extend their own messaging and integration solutions.
One of the major changes for me is the fact that the core components have been updated to the R2 release of BizTalk Server ;)

In one of my previous posts MOSS 2007 VirtualPC how to create a VPC of MOSS2007 using evaluation editions. It seems that microsoft has heard the need of begining developers and System Admistrators regarding the matter so they announced the availability of a MOSS VPC (Inc 2007 client) in the VHD Program run by the Server Virtualization team and available for download on Microsoft.com. The VPC includes the MOSS Product Evaluation Guide (on the desktop) and is configured so the walk through at the end of the guide works with the image.
