VS 2005 Web Application Project

Microsoft has recently released an add-on tool for Visual Studio 2005 for Web Application Projects, instead of developing Web Site projects in the original released version. This is not just a rehash of VS2003 Web Application Project, but rewritten and supported for VS 2005 VB/C#. It will be added in VS2005 SP1 later this year. This new project type supports building (faster) single assembly compilation, edit and continue in the web project, and supporting test-driven development tools.


These are some links where to download this, descriptions and a couple interesting blogs describing pros and cons.
