ASP.NET 2.0 is coming with a framework for developing web parts. Its pretty neat feature. It supports almost all the features supported by sharepoint web parts. To learn about ASP.NET 2.0, check out this article.
First question that comes to our mind when we start reading about ASP.NET 2.0 web part is, whether ASP.NET 2.0 web parts can be hosted in Share point services (WSS)?...
Answer is No, till Sharepoint Services(WSS) Service pack V 2.0 is released. You cant even host ASP.NET 2.0 and SharePoint Services in same machine now. Release date of WSS SP V2.0 is not yet known. These details are not documented officially anywhere.. but it is posted in one of the Microsoft Sharepoint Evangelist blog...
Note: In one of development server, we have installed both ASP.NET 2.0 and Share point services in same machine. But Share Point Services site is running under ASP.NET v1.1. Its running without any issues. But we cant install in production server as it is not supported by Microsoft.
Also, he mentions that next version of Sharepoint services V3.0 will be developed using ASP.NET 2.0 web parts. But existing sharepoint applications web parts which is developed using ASP.NET 1.1 will run smoothly in Sharepoint Services v 3.0.
