    The links are broken above.
    The text is correct, but the href's point to
    http://mail.microsoft.com

    Does this version of managed DX allow us to use generics as discussed previously in your blog. If not, when will that feature be coming?

    Thanks

    No, this version is still based on the 1.1 version of the CLR.. The 'Whidbey' version will be coming at a later date.

    What do you mean by "even quicker updates"? Does that mean there will be a release in Jan 2005, and then another in April 2005 before the next summer release in July 2005?
