same - any news on a beta 2?

Sorry for the delay in response. We will hopefully have a build of Glimpse out that works on RC2 in the next few weeks. I'll keep this post updated as work progresses. Thanks for your patience!

RTM ships on June 27, so you might as well skip an rc2 version at this point unless it also will support RTM

[avanderhoorn]

Thats the plan.

Thats the plan.

The problem is, lots of things changed between RC1 and RC2 projects - project.json schema changes, .xproj file changes, global.json file changes, not to mention package and code changes.

Microsoft have said that they will provide an automatic upgrade experience from RC2 based solutions to RTM. Not from RC1.

So I think this will still leave a lot of manual effort to upgrade. I personally have decided to update to RC2, so when RTM tooling ships I can take advantage of the automatic upgrade.

[avanderhoorn]

The current plan is to update the code to RC2 first, tag it and then start the work for RTM. Depending on the time it takes and if it makes sense, we will release the RC2 version before the RTM.

Awesome. Feel free to try my RC1 to RC2 upgrade tool out if you like. https://github.com/dazinator/AspNetRC1toRC2UpgradeTool

Work on this officially starts on Monday. Hopefully wont take more than a week or two. Hard date for completion is the end of the month - there are other things happening which means the work can't go past that. So coming soon :D
