Fellow MVP, Ethan Wilansky has a new article on MSDN outlining the System.DirectoryServices.Protocols stack. I haven't had a chance to read every last word in it yet (it's a huge article!), but it appears to show roughly 80% of everything you might want to do with SDS.P. Check it out.

I was fortunate enough to receive the MVP award again for the 2007 year. I would like to thank Microsoft and all the program supporters that make this possible. I enjoy helping others and that is why I do it – the MVP privileges however are a very nice perk.

Joe Richards, of
Active Directory 3rd Edition fame was nice enough to label me here as one of his ‘
dorks’. His book, btw is one of the best (if not the best) references to Active Directory. Thanks Joe.

I spent the better part of last week in Redmond and surrounding communities for the MVP Conference. It was a nice to be able to put a face to so many online personas. For the most part it appears that a lot of the content was also presented at PDC with a few exceptions. My overall thoughts are that there are a number of exciting technologies – I suppose the only frustration is that there is little indication in so many cases of when the stuff will actually be shipped.
Things I am looking forward to:
- Windows Workflow Foundation (WWF) – I think this has snuck under the radar a bit, but should present some great new capabilities to enterprise developers. I can think of a project right now that could desperately use this.
- Indigo (WCF) – I hate the new name, but WCF looks very promising.
- LINQ – I know that Frans is not a big fan of DLINQ, but I am looking forward to learning more about this particular technology. Unfortunately, since I did not attend this session I will admit to a paucity of knowledge here.
