Summary: ''. . . the highest simplicity of structure is produced, not by a few elements, but by the highest complexity.'' -Ralph Waldo Emerson, ''Goethe; or, the Writer,''Representative Men,Chapter 8 In November 2005, version 2.0 of Microsoft's .NET Framework and ASP.NET was released along with a new version of its Visual Studio development environment.
