CodeSaga - The version control repository story teller
Just installed CodeSaga on our internal TFS server and I must say I'm impressed!
For a long time I wanted an application like FishEye for our TFS source code repository, but unfortunately, FishEye only works with Perforce, CVS and Subversion...
CodeSaga was quite easy to set up, even though an MSI package would have been nice.
But I guess that is something Torkel might be working on in a near future.
One feature CodeSaga doesn't have yet is the charts of FishEye. But there is a tab already for it in the application, but the page behind it only displays this message:
"Interactive Silverlight charts coming soon to a theather near you!"
Very nice! I'm looking forward to get them into our installation.. :)
Torkel Ödegaard is a consultant at Avega and as far as I understand he created this application as a demo/sample application that shows what you can do with ASP.Net MVC. The application also utilizes some of the nice frameworks I also like very much (Castle Windsor, Rhino Tools) and Boo.
I will definitely look into the code when I get some time for it.
But hey, good for me: I will attend to a talk next tuesday where Torkel is going to speak about ASP.Net MVC. I guess I will ask one or two questions about CodeSaga :)

Groovy, RESTful Grails and jQuery - where are we heading in .Net land?
While we heavily focus on Windows Communication Foundation at work my collegue Morten has made some interesting developments with Grails and jQuery lately. Hosting provided by mor.ph, the PaaS he have chosen to use.
For almost one and a half year ago the team I work in decided to move all scripting efforts to PowerShell instead of using other scripting technologies for our system.
(Worth to notice here is that the whole system is built up around the Microsoft .Net platform - with extra salt and pepper.. You got WPF, Team System, PowerShell, etc.).
Now that we got PowerShell we can do quite neat things in scripts that are built upon our classes and system modules written in C#. For example, writing a script which adds an user to the system using our domain model implementation (written in C#) and a REST client is no biggie at all. (the way it should be)
So where are we heading in .Net land to achieve more with less?
I believe we are in a huge need of languages such as PowerShell and IronPython.
Do we need an equivalent for Groovy or are we just fine with IronPython, PowerShell or maybe we should move our attention to the wrist friendly Boo?
What I want is to write RESTful Web Services with very few self-explanatory lines of code, hosted by WCF. Is that possible?
Where is the Groovy in my RESTful .Net land?
