ASP.NET MVC made an important progress towards being a product and was marketed as beta version. This structure that can be used especially in small and large scaled projects, in which database operations are commonly done, officially will be ready for ASP.NET developers with 1.0 version in forthcoming months. Of course, it can be needed to wait release of .NET Framework 4.0 for properly stabilized ASP.NET MVC.

The innovations that at first I come across are, some improvements related to speeding up coding in Visual Studio and the addition of JavaScript libraries like ASP.NET AJAX, jQuery etc. to the Scripts folder that is now added to the project pattern. If I am not wrong, JQuery first started to be formally come to the fore with a Microsoft product. (You can be sure that JQuery will be more commonly known in the future.)
