| IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT |
With sadness and regret, we are announcing that we will be shutting down the DotNetPlayground service on August 1st, 2003.
The Future of DotNetPlayground?
Without making any guarantees, we do want to open the doors back up for free ASP.NET hosting in the future. With some planning and fundraising, we hope to be able to offer .NET hosting better than the first time.
It was fun while it lasted and we hope that many of you learned a lot about ASP.NET. We certainly did.
