With .Net 3.0, from what I understand, the core parts of the .Net 2.0
framework will be the same. So, I suspect that when the 3.0 exams come
out then they will be for the WinFx specific features WCF, WF etc.
Also, with Orcas coming out at the end of 2007 (currently) then I don't
see any new exams appearing until early 2008.
