I'm going to be diving into ASP.net 2.0 on a small project. I'd also like to
use it as an excuse to start playing with some AJAX techniques.
So, that leads to the obvious question: AJAX.net vs. Atlas?
Anyone have any opinions on that?
It looks like Atlas is still considered 'beta' so perhaps that's one strike
against it.
This mini-Q&A seems to ignore the fact that AJAX isn't necessarily a
'graceful degredation' concept:

Granted, I'm not sure if AJAX.net is any different in terms of it's scope of
support (though, in fairness, Live.com seems to work great in Firefox)
On the other hand, Atlas is a free framework, and ajax.net, while free,
appearst to be moving into the commercial realm with the pro version.
I don't want to go all nuts with AJAX. I'm still a big fan of 'progressive
enhancement' and accessibility issues and likely won't be using AJAX too
much for the front-end (if at all). I'll mainly be using it on the admin
side using things like drag-n-drop to handle record sorting and the like.
