TechEd is coming upon us soon (9-11 may), I'm running the Dev Track, we're going to have about 40 sessions. I was wondering about the things you would like to hear about taking into account that WINFX is not so far away, how much of it would you like...

A new blog on Architecture from a form MCS guy in Microsoft.

I thought about it and almost the only thing VS can't do is coffee. So at the .NET on the beach event in Israel ( Pictures ) I took a robot and a coffee machine and wrote a little MSBuild task to make me coffee while VS is compiling.
