The new site will be some months away as I'm going for a complete re-write in ASP.NET with new sections and new format.
Any ideas as to the new site and format would be very welcome.

Did I mention that I would kill for an ASP.NET DotNetNuke version of WWF?

Hehe, I think Bruce is talking about designing his site first in asp.ent, not the forum right? Sure I would love to see a .net version of the forum as well but I think its cool that the site is moving .net too.

Yes that would be great, WWF in vb.net 2.0 with sql 2005 database. You could even make the database in sql 2005 express that way the user can upload the .mdf and .ldf files to their IP 2005 server.

I think Borg has a lot on his plate right now, but I agree with most of the people here.. ASP.NET Version of the FORUM would be fantastic... especially if it could work with the likes of DNN.

I personally would have no interest in an ASP.NET version of the forum and would never upgrade to one. I would have to redesign thousands of pages on my website, which are integrated with the current ASP version of WWF. No thank you. We tried getting ASP and ASP.NET to play nicely on the same page in the past, and they don't. So we will always use the latest ASP version of WWF, but would never switch to ASP.NET.

Much as I'd like an asp.net version, I think Borg would need to hire a call center. ASP is pretty simple. ASP.NET is not. Would be a real challenge to make it idiot proof. Then they would just make better idiots.

The problem is that classic ASP is no-longer being developed.
Although at the moment it looks like the downloads for ASP forums still out weighs the downloads for ASP.NET forums more and more people are moving across everyday.
I've been looking at ASP.NET version 2 and it looks like there are quite a few improvements. Also allot of things like simpler to do in ASP.NET as they are built into the framework, rather than having to spend hours, if not months sometimes developing work arounds in ASP.
One things that puzzles me is why everyone who develops ASP.NET software always releases it as a .DLL file, even the free stuff.
This makes modifying the code and learning from other developers code impossible, which is something I would rather stay away from.
