    The MVC3 special sauce in POP Forums

    I was chatting with a friend about why, as much as I would rather not rewrite POP Forums for the bazillionth time, it has actually been a lot of fun, and smooth sailing on MVC. If you haven't been playing along at home, POP Forums is the forum app that I've been maintaining now since the days of ASP.old, in sites like CoasterBuzz. In late 2009, I decided I'd rewrite it from the ground up as an MVC app, but it was slow going after the birth of my child. But when I did find time to write code, e...

    (Channeling that guy from Futurama:) "Good news, everyone!" POP Forums v9 for ASP.NET MVC3 is looking like an actual product right now. I kind of dropped off of the preview releases to CodePlex, but rest assured, it's coming along swimmingly. My plan is to post the first beta in January, probably after MVC3 ships. Stay tuned! ...

    Just a quick note to let folks know that I updated the October preview for the forum app to use the new dependency injection hotness found in beta 1 of the next ASP.NET MVC framework. Get those bits here. Brad Wilson has a great post on what that new hotness looks like, and it's a lot less code, and no more exception throwing for non-exceptional circumstances. Hooray! Brad also has a whole series of posts around this version of the framework, and all of the magic things it does. I can't tell...

    Get the goodies here. Yes, another preview, this being #4. A new preview/beta has not yet been released for MVC3, and I wanted to hold off until it did come, but why wait? Read the notes on the previous release (POP Forums 9 - Preview September 2010), as they all apply to this one as well. Added since then: Error logging Session tracking Time adjustments based on server or user's time zone User delete and delete-ban from admin No sign-up from banned e-mail or IP addresses Background service...
