Hello Vishal,

Thanks for some great information on MVC here.

Could you kindly take out sometime and focus a bit more on the following points....

(1) MVC with Dynamic Languages
(2) LINQ in MVC with Dynamic Languages
(3) Using MVC with Visual Web Developer.

I could not find any information on the topics above

Hi Parag,
We have not yet fully explored the Dynamic languages option... We will share more updates as soon as they are available...
From VWD Express standpoint.... We are hoping that MVC will become fully supported in VWD Express 2008 SP1 timeframe...
