Remoting is not going away!

Doug Purdy, PM at Microsoft responsible for Serialization and Remoting, sets the record straight on rumors about Remoting going away: 1. Remoting is not going away. 2. We have a number of new Remoting features for the Whidbey release. [...] 5. Let me repeat, Remoting is not going away. [...]Remoting is about transparency and CLR type fidelity, not interop or service-oriented programming. Please bear this in mind when making your infrastructure decisions. Thanks for setting the record straight - these rumors certainly didn't help anybody. Hey, I guess there might even be something like "Advanced .NET Remoting - Second Edition - .NET 2.0" at some time. Oh, and yes, I'd be really excited to hear about the new features in Whidbey, but I guess the ambiguity of the sentence "No, I cannot go into detail about these plans presently (even if you have an NDA)." is pretty close to zero.
