OK - but don't tell anyone else:- A new coffee maker in the lounge. Coffee Maker .NET. The old one is looking a little infested.
- I've rearranged the furniture a little bit and added some new video pinball machines.
- New name tags for everyone
- New outfit for Bob. He's been complaining about drafts.
OH - you mean scripts and stuff. Right. I've actually been thinking about keeping a diary but it's going to be full of 'discovered cool new thing that relegates 90% of the code written so far obselete' entries 
All CodeProject supporters and sitebuilders will be the guinea pigs for the new site so I can fine tune before it's launched.
The really big issue, as always, is promising a date. To be honest moving to .NET is not critical for the site (it's finally stable! [touch wood]) so all rewriting is done in my spare time. The rest of my days and nights are busy ensuring that what we have will continue to function; that the bills are paid; that we get good quality sponsors and advertisers to help pay the bills; and that the 50 articles a week we get all find their way to you screens more or less intact.
cheers,
Chris Maunder

No, I was actually wondering about that coffee maker, can we get a pop machine too?
Thanks for the update.

Oh, nice to here. Is the UDDI entry available (I reckon it will be a web service)?

Absolutely, there is no question about it, everything in the break room will have this kind of access.
For More Info Check This: Coffee Maker.NET

LOL.
There is even more coffee: Coffees.net, Inc. and even a German CoffeeShop.de

This is more a funny thing than an improvement to the website: What about a counter that show all members that are online (in logged)?
Then you can click on that counter and get the list of them all!? Is that to much work?

I think it'll be a big list and probably server intensive.

This would be an interesting stat in terms of 30,000 members / 10,000 logged in, but i doubt showing an itemized list would be that useful; i doubt most people log off that often.

This is easy using the session object but since we run multiple servers it's a bit of extra work to combine the figures (not difficult, just an extra SQL query each time a session starts and stops).
It would be interesting, but for the moment I'd rather work on building the new site and speeding things up.
cheers,

On a whim i changed my newsletter settings to HTML over the past week, only to find today that Yahoo! Mail refuses to open the email 
So i changed my settings back to text, but i still wanted to see the newsletter; i checked the archives, but the most current one is 3/25 
You'r apostrophe bug's me.

Stop using Yahoo for one thing.
They have made their POP and Forwarding options a paid service.
They have changed their terms of service.
And they say everything else will slowly be maid paid
