Yesterday Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 and Framework 3.5 shipped for the MSDN subscribers. You can have more detailed information about new features in ScottGu’s blog.
This makes me wonder… Today I still work with framework 1.1 and VS2003 in my work. When will enterprises make the migration for the VS2008? Well, they must first pass by VS2005, right?
I think the migration will be made around year 2015 (give or take)…
Maybe they wont… these applications will live for ever for the target framework, until the day they decide to make some new ones in the newest framework.
The problem here is that the new projects, the ones that are made from scratch, are made using the framework 1.1.
And when we ask why, they answer: We’re afraid Web Services made in 1.1 don’t work well in 2.0…
Maybe they don’t know Web Services are SOAP messages?
