I was on a conference call with those characters from SOA Software and they were demonstrating their BizTalk Management Pack. They also spent a lot of time covering their in-development WCF binding.
Moving forward, SOA Software is releasing Microsoft-friendly agents for …
IIS 6.0 (SOAP/HTTP)
WCF (any transport)
BizTalk (any transport)
BizTalk-WCF (any transport)
All of these (except the BizTalk agent) […]

We are launching a series of MSDN webcasts to explore the possibilities of Microsoft .NET 3.5 Framework through demonstrations and deep dives on Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) and Windows Workflow Foundation (WF).
Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) is Microsoft’s unified programming model for building and connecting service-oriented applications. Windows Workflow Foundation (WF) is the programming model, engine, and tooling for quickly building workflow-enabled and long-running applications. Together, or separate, WCF and WF provide a platform to help developers build powerful, flexible and extensible applications that employ the latest service-oriented and workflow capabilities.
In these series, you will learn from the industry experts on how to build WF/WCF applications
You can find links to our June MSDN Webcasts here: http://www.microsoft.com/events/series/msdnnetframework35.aspx?tab=webcasts&id=liveall
We’ll update the site in the next weeks with more information on our upcoming influencer webcasts for the month of July.
Regards,
Marjan Kalantar

We’re replacing one of our critical systems, and one of the system analysts was looking for a way to capture key data entities in the existing system, and every system/form/report that used each entity. Someone suggested SharePoint and I got myself roped into prototyping a solution.
Because of the many-to-one relationship being captured (e.g. one entity […]

about a problem I’ve also had recently – that Matt helped
me figure out how to solve.
The exception is (repeated here for seach purposes):
This collection already contains an address with
scheme http. There can be at most one address per scheme in this collection.
Parameter name: item
Description: An unhandled exception
occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack
trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
Exception Details: System.ArgumentException: This collection already contains an address
with scheme http. There can be at most one address per scheme in this collection.
Parameter name: item
The way to solve this problem is to setup multiple web sites in IIS (rather than having
one site that has multiple Host entries) – and point all the websites to the same
directory.
Hope this helps someone.

I’ve started developing a RFID Mobile application on a Windows Mobile device – which
is pretty cool.
I decided to use VS2008 and all worked well until deployment.
“Unable to load System.Data.SqlServerCe.dll ….Version=3.0.xxxxx ” as the version
OOTB with VS2008 is v3.5
So I grabbed SQL
CE Mobile 3.0 and copied over and installed the sqlce30.wce5.armv4i.CAB and
all is good!

I’ve been trying out Live Mesh in the last few days, and I am amazed at how well it works, and at the possibilities it opens in terms of the paradigm we use to interact with our resources. It’s admittedly not a completely new idea, but it’s new in the way it is realized.
Before I start: in the last few months I’d been using Mozy to do online backups to my personal laptop. Mozy installs a client tool that monitors changes in my files, and uploads them to a online repository. Another interesting feature is that it adds a new option in my windows explorer’s contextual menu, which allows me to browse and restore previous versions of each file.
Live Mesh, in many ways, is similar to this. I browse my file system, select folders to sync to my online Live Desktop, and the client tool it includes uploads those files to the Mesh, maintaining them synchronized. I can then open them either from the web page or any PC with the client tool installed. I can also start a remote desktop connection to any computer in my Mesh. My desktop, anywhere. (but that would be an old slogan :-)).
Anyway, this is a very interesting development (still needing perfecting…), and I’m looking forward to use it widely, since it’s still a Technical Preview).
If you want to learn more, while this is not yet completely public, the best source is the team’s blog at http://blogs.msdn.com/livemesh/ .
Now, what I would really like to see in this platform is a Silverlight interface, using Deep Zoom to browse the "desktop". That would be cool, and an interesting desktop interaction model to try out.
This development is apparently in no way related to BizTalk Services, which kind of surprises me, and I have yet no idea what the programmability possibilities are/will be.
