Hi,
Is .NET Framework 3.5 redistributable available? If, not what is expected
timeframe for it?

I think:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...FD-AE52-4E35-B531-508D977D32A6&displaylang=en

is what you can get.

Link you provided is whole framework and requires to download 63MB of data
from Microsoft. 2.0 and 3.0 framework had redistributable(only runtime)
packages which could be easily distributed to clients so they do not need to
install whole framework to just run the programs.

..NET 1.1 and 2.0 had a runtime and a SDK - the link is the equivalent
of those runtimes - there are no (AFAIK) standalone SDK - you need
to get it with VS. And obviously the runtime needs the entire
framework - a runtime with missing classes is no good.

What would be nice to see is

versions for people who already have framework 2.0 and/or 3.0 previously
installed.

See, that is already no good - 3.5 sits on top of 2.0SP1 and 3.0SP1,
not 2.0 and 3.0. But 63Mb *is* the targetted download; the full
redistributable (useful for network deployment) is closer to 200Mb.
