Some of the things on the list of what’s new & improved

1. Redesign of the configuration tool – heck, that thing looked the same since the bits were acquired from Avanade quite a while back – good to see the changes.

2. Logging performance – this is has been 1 of the areas that we all need

3. Configuration improvements: XSD enabled, intellisence (yeah!)

4. Oh, and .NET 4.0 support :)

Neudesic is offering up registered access to their ESB platform – Neuron.

  • This is a known bug and here is a fix or workaround.
  • How do I troubleshoot issues I am having
