Is MS silent about MVC-Page controller for ASP.NET 2.0

[Guest]

It seems that there is a big problem in the web controller arena in MS
because none can be found for ASP.NET 2.0. Maybe is because UIPAB (v 1 and 2)
had flaws according to this article:

http://www.ingeniousapps.com/Products/IngeniousMvc/Introduction.aspx#ID0EQF

Is MS doing something ?
Is ASP.NET 2.0 sufficient?

Thanks,

Not a big problem. MVC is a niche for MS, their focus is on drag and drop
form design. You could make a case that asp.net 2.0 is largely the MVC
pattern, with the asp.net files just being the UI definition. I expect that
asp.net will become more declarative and more MVC like.

While the MS MVC application block may not be the best, there is nothing in
asp.net that prevents you from coding the MVC pattern.

The biggest problem with a common framework for web and heavy client, are
the state management.issues with web based applications.
