I'm working on a new version of my blackmarket project. It started out simply enough. I was just going to enhance it a little bit to handle the new Out of Office feature released with 807. It was going to be 100% backwards compatible with the original version.
Oh, but then I got carried away. I started adding features. Adding controls. Adding control designers. I took suggestions from people who are already using it. I started asking myself, "What would help developers deliver web pages faster?" In the end, it's going to have at least 5 or 6 controls instead of just one in the current version. I've tried to make it easily extensible with a logical inheritance pattern.
In the end though, I decided not to maintain 100% compatibility with the first version. The K2Submit control will be very similar, but have a different internal structure. I had to change some of the events it fired slightly so I could take advantage of consistency and inheritance with some of the new controls.
In the end, I hope I have made the control library more useful for you.
