4. For future development plan, reference Scott's statement:
Although the core ASP. net ajax 1.0 product was officially launched, we have never slowed down.
All functions of ASP. net ajax 1.0 will be directly integrated into the next version of ASP. NET (codenamed Orcas. Visual Studio "Orcas" also provides client-side JavaScript intelliisense, JavaScript compilation check, and rich JavaScript debugging support for ASP. net ajax use cases.
At the same time, we have started the next version of ASP. net ajax, and will continue to add new functions and make many improvements to the supported ASP. net ajax core. You can start using many new functions in ASP. net ajax Futures CTP. You can download this CTP on the ASP. net ajax website, which supports the "go live" license.
