Moving my projects to asp.net beta 2. Good idea?

[jensen bredal]

Hello,

I have just built my asp.net 1.1 project with visual studio web dev express
2005.
Beta 2 has a Go Live license and i want to get used to the new things as
early as possible.

Is there any reason why i should not do this?

I know some of the beta 2 apis may change but otherwise can i run into other
serious
problems that might prevent me from delivering update of my web applikation
?


Any comment will be higly appreciated.

How mission critical is your project
Without going furthere in details , i can say that this project is very
mission critical.
An other reason why i'm considering this move is the possibility of using
the layout tools.
The next step in my project is to port it to some not yet defined CMS system
..
But as i read more about the new godies in asp.net 2.0 , i'm tempted to
think that
it could as well offer the feature gained using a CMS.

With master pages you can really build consistent layout and you get
Menu/treeview and more.
Well i'm aware that there are still several hundreds of open bugs for the
VS.Net 2005 so
i do not quiet know if i dare take the risk.

Are you making a living from these projects? That would be a reason not to.
