I was at Developer Developer Developer Day 5 at Microsoft today, it's a pretty cool free event. It's mix of technology discussions with some vendor plugs, but I'll forgive them as long as they have a point.
One interesting application that was presented was Developer Expresses DXCore for Visual Studio plugins. This app allows a really easy way to to build plug ins using the code based used for CodeRush and Refactor from Developer Express. It's pretty powerful but there was a drawback, and that was in distribution.
If you wanted to distribute a Visual Studio plug in you'd developed, the target computer would have to have DxCore installed to. It's free which is cool, but it's just another step. Still, it's worth considering if you're developing a framework or tool kit to run in the VS IDE.
