Beta 2 skip and replace rules
We posted about skip and replace rules awhile back, but this is probably one of the more complex areas of MS Deploy. You have to understand our provider structure to figure out what type of object needs to be replaced, what attribute, and then write a RegEx match. There are a lot of parameters you can set to scope the rules, and then the added complexity of regular expressions. So I wanted to post some of my favorite rules (not in priority order ;-)) for the command-line and also show the same rule for the PowerShell cmdlets.

Web Deployment Tool Beta 1 (Go Live) just released
Today the Web Deployment Team released the Beta 1 version of the deployment tool! If you're not familiar with the tool already, it is here to help you keep sites or servers in sync with IIS6 or IIS7, as well as migrate from IIS6 to IIS7. One of the key things we've worked on is the flexibility of the underlying framework, which you can see in the number of rules, the ability to configure dependencies and especially, the different providers that we support.
