Question

User-2105015056 posted

Hello,

now that VS2008 is released i'd like to know the status of Web Deployment Projets.

I've seen at the poll to have them included into VS2008, that this wasn't accepted.

What a pitty. But can someone give me a timeframe when to except these fof VS2008.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Ambionix,

The Web Deployment Project add-in for VS.NET 2008 will be available soon. Scott has published this message in his blog:

Visual Studio 2008 and .NET 3.5 Released

Silverlight Tools and VS Web Deployment Project Add-Ins
Two popular add-ins to Visual Studio are not yet available to download for the final VS 2008 release.  These are the Silverlight 1.1 Tools Alpha for Visual Studio and the Web Deployment Project add-in for Visual Studio.  Our hope is to post updates to both of them to work with the final VS 2008 release in the next two weeks.
