A big thankyou to all the attendees at last night's MDNUG & AusDev meeting. Our presentation seemed to be well received although we were a little pressed for time in the end. We didn't get to show a single line of code in the end but I think we did manage to convey the overall experience we have had with .Net in RAV.

If anybody has any follow-up questions please drop a comment here and I'll do my best to answer. I plan to do some articles surrounding the ASP.NET issues I spoke of last night (dealing with low-bandwidth clients) in the near future but by all means if you want some more detail on particular elements you saw last night, ask away.

A few people asked for links to some of the technologies and components we mentioned last night so here is a list, including a link to the slide deck.
