For the most part I have no idea what you just said... But I wish you a "Happy First Day @ Work!" :-)

It is so weird to not see you on messenger in the morning. Just plain weird!!

Hey, good luck with it! Oddly enough, I've encountered a lot of similar challenges/technology recently at my workplace. The ASP dot net module for Apache gave me some trouble just this week actually.
Since you are using VS.Net 2005, I'm guessing your build platform is Windows-based. Correct?
If you're looking for low learning curve, easily maintainable build tools, I highly recommend FinalBuilder (http://www.finalbuilder.com/). I converted our old, messy, perl-based code builder to FinalBuilder projects over the past year and I love it. May not work for your purposes but I like to plug products that make my life easier.
Have a good first day!

I am actually a project admin and developer for nant (http://nant.sf.net). It is an open source .net version of java ant (http://ant.apache.org). They are build tools (platforms if you will) for building and deploying. In essence they are xml driven script/workflow environments. But thanks for the suggestion.

At the end of the project we will be deploying on linux with the apache mod_mono module to test for performance compared to running under IIS on windows. We will have to see how that works out.

On of the goals of the project is being able to maintain compatibility between windows/linux and ms .net/mono.
