What's the hardest part of creating any open-source project?

No, not writing the code.

No, not helping users in the support forum...

I'll tell you: writing documentation, especially when the documentation is not in your native language. So that's what I have been doing for the last few weeks (or should I say "months"?).

In fact, the documentation project was the only thing that held back the release of ProMesh.NET version 2.0, and today I am proud to announce the release of the first release candidate of ProMesh.NET 2.0, with full documentation online. The documentation still needs a lot work, but at least (almost) all the features of the framework have been documented.

So, what's new in ProMesh.NET 2.0 (RC1) ?

• Built-in routing engine. Routing can be added at runtime (at application startup), or can be specified using attributes on the controller classes and action methods.
• Support for calling/rendering view components from templates. View components are special controllers that render a view, which will be inserted in the calling view.
• Support for any page extension, including none at all (recommended for IIS 7 deployment)
• New template engine (SharpTemplate.NET) which supports full C# expressions in view logic
• Ajax validation of forms
• Performance improvements
