    Looking forward to what you good folks have done! Here's to a successful deployment!

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.

    Your communication skills are going to come in handy here.

    Hope all goes as planned.

    Apart from the annoying posts, this is still the best site I have worked on, ever!

    Fingers crossed for a smooth upgrade.

    Unbelievable, I was going to post the following:

    Looking forward to to it. One aspect of this project has already been a success: communication!!!

    Then I read the other posts; Jeff's "Looking forward", Robert's praise of your communication then Japie's mention of annoying posts. It would look like I took all other posts to heart before compiling my own.

    I guess they are all just spot on.

    The underlying tech and look and feel may be old but from a customer perspective this site works.

    That said the new look and feel is a welcome upgrade.

    I think there is a lesson in this. It is great to work on the latest tech but we should never lose site of our customers.

    I don't consider myself a real SQL heavy by any means, so my comment is to be taken with a gain of salt. More often than not, the trend toward the metro style interface, if I am using the term properly, results in sites having users memorizing more icons, looking at more white space, and getting less from each screen. I hope that is not the case here. (Please pass the salt.) But if a new code base makes site maintenance more efficient on the publishing side, by all means, all the best to your team in the effort!

    Same here. I like to see as much as possible on one screen without having to "remember" what was on the prior screens as I advance through them.

    We try not to create extra screens for clicks. The forums should be about the same, maybe slightly styling differently, but not really more/less information.

    I hope you managed to keep & maintain the Briefcase feature (with Tags) in the new version. I rely on that feature the most.
