Yes Jira, but this makes the assumption that every web host out there currently supports 3.5 hosting, which they do not all seem to offer as default at present. Many hosts still only offer 2.0 as standard, and are only just starting to make migrations up to 3.5 hosting offerings. Whislt I can

Happy new year :) Just to express a modes oppinion. 2.0 Support seems old enough to be dropped (although I am still actively using it). Sooner or later, Microsoft will forget it and there will be no other choice(like they did with the 2.0 sp2, which is not provided standalone). I haven`t
