The last couple of weeks have seen a significant increase in terms of announcements and information from Microsoft ahead of the Professional Developer’s Conference next week. It is a key time for Microsoft’s Connected Systems Division (CSD) as they go public with their plans for .NET 4, Oslo and ‘Dublin’. Microsoft’s announcement of Dublin led immediately to an interesting, if somewhat predictable, debate within the company I work for, and I think it is worth going over some of that territory here.
