A CodePlex project worth following.

A friend, Malthe Stougaard, tip me at the last SharePoint Dinner of a new CodePlex project worth following. The project exists of a group of SharePoint MVPs that create a collection of useful SharePoint 2010 Visual Studio 2010 Extensions. The project is still in an alpha release, but all ready now the project contains:

• New item templates
• Custom Action (basic)
• Hide Custom Action (basic)
• Custom Action Group (basic)
• Delegate Control (basic)
• Deployment
• Restart IIS
• Recycle app pools
• Copy to SharePoint root
• Auto GAC
• Auto copy to root
• Attach to worker process
• Server Explorer extensions
• Web part gallery listing
• Import Content Type into current project (stub - full feature to come in beta)
• Display Custom Action Groups (stub - full feature to come in beta)
• Display Custom Actions (stub - full feature to come in beta)
• Display Hide Custom Actions (stub - full feature to come in beta)

So time to play with some VS.net extensions :)
