    nice, but what's so great about WCF? my one brush with it so far was a traumatic episode of bloody-minded YAGNI violation...

  2. Jon, very good!

    The main reason for including WCF is because of the nice integration between it and the Windsor IoC. Being able to write IoC components and then just expose them as services with a bit of config is a very nice story.

  4. It's another product of Ayende's planet sized brain (but I don't think anyone's ever asked him to look after a carpark):

    I've got a vague plan to do a detailed post on the subject soonish, so watch this space :)

  6. yo Mike - great post.

    imo this is all stuff that Mainstream.NET people should do anyway ...

    I mean - High cohesion/Low coupling? that's software engineering 101
