Expectations for office12

Moslem wrote an article about office12ArticleI also want to talk about the outlook and expectations for office12:

SharePoint v3
The next version of Sharepoint is expected to be built on ASP. NET 2.0, And the webpart in SharePoint V3 will also be based on the webpart framework in ASP. NET 2.0. This is good news for developers. According to the plan that has already been made public, the compatibility between different webpart versions will be:

· The webpart in ASP. NET 2.0 can be used in SharePoint V3.
· Now, The webpart in SharePoint V2 (sps2003) can be used in SharePoint V3.
· The webpart in ASP. NET 2.0 can be used in the upgraded version of SharePoint V2 (sps2003) (sps2003 SP2 ?) .

Infopath form Server
It should be the inheritance and extension of the form library in sps2003. I hope infopath can play an increasingly important role in enterprise business processes. At the same time, I also hope that the next version of infopath can better work with the customized WebService.

Office smartclient
Although the word "office smartclient" has been increasingly recognized by developers, I hope that the next version of Office will have better programming interfaces. Smartdoc, smarttag, IBF, and infopath are really good stuff, but at this stage their development is indeed "obscure" and "twists and turns.
