Great, thanks for tall the input. I'll look into integration of FB2 and FB3 and start working FB3 for further development.
Oh, thanks Erik Voldengen for the link. I'll look into it. One more wrinkle: We want to port this intranet to our clients as an ASP model. Is the FB3 spec more modularly portable or about the same as FB2. As all good corporations we want to capitalize on our past development but I just want everything to work together nicely and be able to plug and play with commponents. My wife likes me to be with her at night and not playing VPN to work. PS- Thanks everyone at FB for the great methodology and tools that have gone along with it. Anyone have a place I can go to for FLiP?
