Hello,
Problem, design and solution was one of the best creation from Wrox and real good efforts from the authors too.
Its nice to see that a new book in on the way in May 2006. I was sad to know that its only for C# developers.
How come Vb.NET community is neglected. The previous book has 2 editions for each. How about this time also. It seems it makes no sense in getting released C# first and VB.NET later on.
Pl release both the books at same time. or just include the code for Vb.Net in the same book as you had done in Professional asp.net 2.0
This is just my opinion, pl. feel free to ask for other opinions too for this great and most wanted book.
Softmind
Thanks

The C# edition is coming first for 2 reasons:
1) the author prefers C#
2) they sold a LOT more of the C# edition than the VB.NET edition
Once the C# edition is out they'll watch the sales numbers, and they'll decide on whether to make a VB.NET edition based on those numbers. If they sell a lot of books quickly (as I expect them to), they'll probably commission someone to make the VB.NET port of the book.
They have to pay someone to do the work, and it will take a couple months once they select someone and get a signed contract.
