I've been generally regarded all around as a Metal Head, since I used to listen hard rock and heavy-metal (and from there upwards) almost exclusively. However, in the past few years, my music taste has broaden quite a bit, and now I tend to listen to a mix of genres,...

Yesterday, I wondered into the ASP.NET forums, and stayd for a while, going over many of the topics and answering a few of the questions there. And you know what? I'm prefer mail lists or NNTP myself, but actually, it has one of the better HTML interfaces for forums out...

Adrian Bateman reported on his site about a new MC++ FAQ at the MSDN site. Looks like a pretty good resource worth checking out if you're interested in MC++. Which of course, reminds me that I should set up a links section on my own MC++ FAQ... </p>

I've been trying to get my head around how the whole SOAP Processing Model works (specially in v1.2), while at the same time trying to digest WS-Routing and the concept of SOAP Intermediaries. Most makes sense right from the start, but there are a few things I'm still not completely...

My friend Sam just got his first article published on MSDN online together with Chris (whom I've already congratulated via email!). This one covers WinForms programming with Managed C++ on Everett. Be sure to check it out! </p>

Clemens points out the slide decks he and Steve Swartz made for the Scalable Apps Tour. You can grab them here. Just browsed them over, and as usual, excellent stuff. Highly recommended! </p>

I've updated my main RSS 2.0 feed to use XHTML+body instead of content:encoded. I've also added a new a RSS 2.0 feed for the last 20 comments on the weblog (this one doesn't use XHTML+body because I can't control whether reades post valid XHTML).

Fumiaki Yoshimatsu points out on a comment to my xs:any post that skip seems to work on .NET 1.1. I just tried it, and indeed it works and shows no error. Lax still gives me an error, though, which I think should not, either. </p>
