Thanks to everyone who mentioned our efforts to show the world what can be achieved with .NET Remoting!

Sam Gentile: Way Excellent! Terrific Threesome create OS .NET Remoting Site

Sam Ruby: Ingo, Simon, and Peter announce .Net Remoting related Open Source projects.  First two are Jabber and SMTP support.  Bidirectional TCP, XML-RPC, MSN Messenger, Caching, and other ideas are planned.  Excellent license.

Dave Winer: Sounds like Peter Drayton, Simon Fell and Ingo Rammer are adding all kinds of rest-of-the-world friendly bits to Microsoft's .NET, which would be totally welcome news, of course.

The interesting thing is: these three people are coming from totally different backgrounds: Sam Gentile is a die-hard .NETter (or at least it seems so from the book he has written and the links he posts ;-)), Sam Ruby evangelizes (in the best sense of this word) SOAP and Dave Winer is the scripting and XML-RCP community's voice. Everyone seems to like our idea ...

Of course, others mentioned the project as well. But they had the unfair advantage of knowing upfront ;-)

Thanks also for the congrats and offers to contribute which I received by email!
