I hadn't heard word one about this until I was on an interview the other day.
They were looking for someone with a little 2005 experience because they have this huge project and will want to migrate to 2005.
They said it would be a terribly complicated upgrade - which I didn't quite follow. There are newer namespaces and nicer functions, but I thought this was backwards compatable. They were saying that they would have someone fixing all the breaks in the application because 2005/Net2.0 has code breaking changes.
Is this true? I thought 2.0 was new methods (like to/fromXML for a datatable), not changing the existing framework so current applications wouldn't run.
