I agree, we need to make some decisions and start getting something done.. Last month i haven't been able to be very active in the project, but from next week on (or the week after that) i'll have a lot more time again.. It would be a shame if i wouldn't be able to use that time effectively because everyone is just having the same discussion over and over again without actually making any decisions! I want to code damn it! :) Or at least get some documentation/design done..
As for the whole .net 2.0 vs .net 3.5 debate, i think it would be wise to stick with .net 2.0 for now.. but there's nothing stopping us from eventually switching over to .net 3.5 some time after the new mono and visual studio 2008 have been releeased...
