We'll certainly be a late adopter. We've been deploying 2.0 framework apps for about 18 Months now. We're at least 24 Months out from any new .NET framework deployments; too many mission-critical apps at risk, and at least 2 will break and need recoded. We jumped on the MS bandwagon with IE, XML DataIslands and client-side HTTPPost...What a Dead-end effort! That experience alone has put us in the "wait and see" mode. We'll see what shakes out in 2-3 years...

I'm heading toward 50 and still coding.....The big difference now is that most of the easier coding goes to the less-experienced developers. I end up tackling the tough and extremely complex problems, run more peer code reviews and handle more systems design and architecture. When something doesn't work, I'm the "Go-to" guy....and that's a good thing!
