    Congrats jon,

    I guess that’s you spreading it on the fileshare networks then, lol

    You gonna review it on your site or is that against the nda of the download?

    …how did it get on the the file share net works?!?!, surely all the contacts are quite trustworthy?

    I wonder hw much it will cost when it ships? will there be a dev version?, was there a dev version of 03, i’ve never seen it – i guess they say, hey get VSTO?

    i still haven’t intsall my beat of VS 2005!

    I doubt all 10,000 were trust worthy.

    I never saw the dev version of 2003 either but I may have read something about it, maybe somebody was making dll’s with it?

    I backed off my .net development but still have it installed, I’m still smitten with PHP.

    no idea about price and I’m guessing they’ll push VSTO as the dev environment, or maybe not since it doesn’t seem to be gaining any traction (or is it?, hard to see much from my Kentucky Bunker but I doubt it)
