Scott Guthrie has posted up about how Web Application Projects (version 1.0) will be released shortly. This release is significant because it will support building WAPs with Team Build under Team Foundation Server. I think WAPs provide a better development model than Web Site Projects, especially for enterprise develoepers so I am really happy about this release.

Getting WAPs working under Team Build was originally a problem because while it compiled up the code just fine and shipped the DLLs it didn’t actually publish the web-site content to the drop directory.

Now that this is going to be sorted its worthwhile getting continuous integration going on our TFS installation so that some of our sites like http://scripts.readify.net can get updated with new code drops automatically (just have to make sure those build verification tests are good).
