Please prove that then! Find an independent survey (i.e. done without M$loth's
money) that shows how many people are using ASP.NET vs other IDE's. I know I am
not the only one who is sick of the Microsofties who have a very overdeveloped
belief in the penetration of their chosen IDE. The sales numbers of the SDK, et
al, are not a good indication of actual usage...

And, the other thing that the vocal minority forgets is that Subversion is
intended to be a replacement for _CVS_, not VSS. Just because M$loth ships a
version control system that is so prone to corruption (and a package which M$oft
doesn't even use internally), doesn't mean that Subversion was designed to
replace VSS! There isn't even a working SCC implentation of Subversion yet.

If Subversion was advertised as a replacement for VSS, then the flaw would be
quickly fixed, since this would have been the target audience. It's not; it is
a replacement for CVS.
