New Years Resolutions and the like

Well my first new years resolution was to pull out a whole bunch of trees at home.  Several hours later trees gone. This new years resolution thing really works.

While biking to work this morning in the ice (fun) I decided my second new years resolution is to figure out what we need to do more of, or what we aren't doing to keep you all happy.  Some things I know about and we are working on:

1. The Exam (its coming)

2. Developer Deep Dive Training - more details on this later but we are putting together a course for those of you who have already read the book, done a project, done the existing training etc.  Also I hear Developmentor is doing something Guerrilla for you all.  While I'm on Developmentor Jon Flander's dropped me a line to tell me about his "snapshot tool".  It snap-shots a BizTalk application. Check it out here.

3. Planning BizTalk Server 2006.

But what are some of the other things that are frustrating due to lack of information or otherwise that we could help with? All comments welcome.

    Maybe some detailed documentation explaining how to deploy BizTalk 2004 in a clustered environment, with the SQL and BizTalk for ex. running on different machines. An Example of this would be helpfull, which can be used as a building block for deploying our BTS 2004 solutions. This document should also explain how to do the security setup (accounts) etc.

    Happy New Year Scott,<br><br>It would be really good to get more of a handle on the operational monitoring side of things. We are getting to the enterprise maturity level with some of our projects but could do with guidance on how best to integrate with MOM and BAM for fault monitoring and KPI / SLA adherence.<br><br>Just my $0.02,<br><br>Matt

    Some more flesh to the RulesEngine namespace documentation, like examples and more textual description of the classes would be very helpful. Alos helpful would be more serious examples of using code to construct business rules.
