A friend of mine and I are working on a new project in our spare time. The application is based on a common past time (fantasy sports) and it's a lot of fun. I've had a version of the program running for the past 4 years written entirely in C++/MFC and roles a persistence model that is entirely proprietary. The rewrite expands the scope drastically and we've been going back and forth on the initial spec. This has been a lot of fun.
In the meantime, we have the webservices running and data persistence(XML based of course)/data model complete for the first phase of development. Everything is being driven by the tests (NUnit). Right now I'm working with the dotMSN library to prove out a concept in the application (so far I'm really liking the library). I was looking for a .net library that worked with MSN Messenger and I have to say “thanks” to Kirk Marple for leading me to it.
