Mike Deem: We released Beta 1 of the Microsoft SOAP Toolkit version 3.0 today. 11:36:41 PM

Chris Sells announced: Don Box's keynote at the Web Services DevCon: The Role of Virtualization in Web Services Virtualization is a fundamental mechanism for raising the level of abstraction in software systems. All modern operating systems virtualize physical memory and interrupts through the use of a virtual memory manager and thread scheduler. Moreover, the industry at large has been moving towards more advanced execution engines such as the Common Language Runtime that virtualize memory and code into objects and types. Don Box examines role that virtualization plays in the world of XML Web Services.

Peter reported on two things of interest to me. Thomas Restrepo posted a two-part series on his experiences building a formatter for .NET remoting, as part of this effort. Chris Sells posted audio and video for the WSDevCon talks. Since it's a commercial venture for him, I guess it's understandable that he's charging for access. The Don Box keynote (The Role of Virtualization in Web Services) is free, though - worth checking out.  This was an inspiring keynote and well worth checking out.
