not so soon I guess 2016 is when .net 2 will be retired..looking forward to it already eh? lol The new orcas (3.5 stream) will have no effect on the old .net 2 framework exams, just that you will be certified for .net 2 if you take 70-528. So if you complete 536 and 528 you'll be mcts .net web application .net 2.0. But 528 won't help you for the MCPD track which has different requirements now.-http://www.microsoft.com/learning/mcp/mcpd/vstudio/ 2008/default.mspx http://support.microsoft.com/lifecycle/?LN=en-us&p1=8291&x=7&y=13
Thanks a lot. We're going to be using 2.0 for the time being so I wanted to make sure the cert would be valid for a while. Thanks for the links also. -Sean
