Rebuilding CoasterBuzz, Part I: Evolution, and death to WCF
Feb 1229This is a repost from my personal blog...

For sharing: Any day job or gig where others will use or maintain your code. You don't want to unleash crapsauce on others. I have to admit that second case isn't the most clean of endeavors. While I'm generally happy with the forum app and the feedba...
