ASP.NET 2.0 References and compiled DLLs changes

Hello,

Just created my first ASP.NET 2.0 project with Visual Studio 2005. I see
they changed some very important things. So, I have the follwoing questions:

1. How can I view and remove project references. I can add references from
the project menu, but where is reference "folder" which used to be in VS 2003
from which I could add or remove references.

2. I see that there's no bin folder, project still compiles and runs, that's
fine. But when it comes to deploying this project to a remote web server, how
should dlls be compiled and moved if at all. Am I misunderstandin g some new
key concepts in ASP.NET 2.0

3. Does anyone know of a good "what's new" tutorials for people with VS 2003
experience getting up to speed with 2005

Thank you!

1) as vs2005 does not use project files for web projects, the references are
added to the web.config in the compilation section.

2) in vs2005 there is a notion of a "publish", that build a staging
folder(s), that you then xcopy to the server.

3) don't know, i just read the docs

Hi everyone, I've recently converted a solution to VS 2005 and .NET 2.0. from '03 and .NET 1.x. The solution has two Web sites in it, both of which need to share each other's code.
