Oak Leaf Enterprises is proud to announce version 1.0 of its Mere Mortals .NET Framework. This enterprise-level development tool consists of a powerful component-based framework. Based on solid object oriented design and patterns, MM .NET simplifies many common data access and rule validation tasks, reducing the amount of code you need to write. Business objects can be combined with a set of super-charged user interface controls that simplify databinding, validation, security, error handling and many other mundane tasks. In addition, many Builders and Wizards help in speeding development of user interface and business object services. The HTML Develpoer's Guide includes a number of Jump Starts that get you up and running quickly. MM .NET was architected and implemented by two C# MVPs (Kevin McNeish and Rick Strahl) and the fully commented source code is provided with the product to allow complete customization and review of the code.
