JD,
The guidelines are very good -- short, to-the-point, well-organized -- but I'm struggling to find suggestions specific to work in corporate IT shops with lots of applications and projects for variety of departments and lines-of-business. Details of my problem scenario and a few possible implementation approaches are at http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/showpost.aspx?postid=1453999&siteid=1
Could you or anyone else comment on the tradeoffs in the various options there, or point me to some info focused on these issues?
Thanks!
