A few minutes ago I read a nice article on ScottGu's blog, published on Tuesday, February 19, 2008. In this article he wrote about the future improvements and features, addressed to the client development in .NET 3.5 with Visual Studio 2008.

This headlines are listed in the roadmap of planned improvements/features:

• Improved .NET Framework Setup for Client Applications
• Improved Working Set and Startup Improvements for .NET Client Applications
• WPF Performance Improvements
• WPF Control Improvements
• VS 2008 WPF Designer Improvements

Overall a nice list of improvements and I hope, it won't take to much time to achieve them . You can read the full article here.
