Atlas renamed

- less than 1 minute read

I’m probably one of the last blogging about this but Atlas, the AJAX framework by Microsft, is going to be renamed. Also other good news: they’ll do their best to ship a version 1.0, which will be supported, this year. Now we only get to get used to the new names:

  • Microsoft AJAX Library: The client-side JavaScript library (/images/i.e., all the .js files) that works with any browser and also supports any server-side framework, not just ASP.NET.* ASP.NET 2.0 AJAX Extensions: The server-side functionality that seamlessly integrates with ASP.NET and uses the same programming model familiar to existing ASP.NET developers.* ASP.NET AJAX Control Toolkit: The set of free, shared source controls and components that currently form the “Atlas” Control Toolkit community project hosted on CodePlex.* Microsoft AJAX = Microsoft AJAX Library + ASP.NET 2.0 AJAX Extensions.

You can read more about it on the blogs of Scott Guthrie, Brian Goldfarb & Keith Smith.

Grz, Kris.
