Hat's off to the BlogEngine.NET folks on their 2.0 release. A great release it is! I've ported this blog to the 2.0 release. Everything went pretty smooth. The only issue I had was that I had to rem out the following line in web.config:
<!--<add name="ScriptModule"type="System.Web.Handlers.ScriptModule, System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35"/>-->
I suspect because my provider includes that already in their web.config, which gets inherited by my web.config.
I LOVE the new admin interface in BlogEngine.NET 2.0. Fantastic work. Check out the video here to see it in action. The comment moderation and capabilities are super strong. And I like how they baked in code formatting using the defacto standard of http://alexgorbatchev.com/ Syntax Highlighter.
Lastly, I'm really impressed with how they integrated the HTML5 audio/video tags with a super smooth fallback to Flash/Silverlight. You can see that in action below:
