Me either. There's no way I can make it to Miami, but I've been thinking about WilFest since it's within driving distance for me. Plus some of the people from our local VFP user group are going to be there.

Converting from ASP to WC shouldn't take too much work. The syntax is pretty similar. Heck, send me a copy and I'll convert it ;-)
How is it going to address a fully stateless design? In WC by default you have control of the context so it's possible to use a not-so-stateless object in a stateless manner since you don't have to encapsulate all communication into one method call. MTS let's you do something similar but it's less than ideal. I think I've mentioned this before, but I really like the ObjectToXML/XMLToObject methods in WC. Something like this incorporated into MM's would be nice.
