Notes

|
First, point out
that WSS leverages features from the underlying OS, from SQL Server and from
ASP.NET 2.0. Also discuss certain features that were added to ASP.NET 2.0
(Master Pages, Web Parts, Navigation) that benefit WSS "V3".

Next, describe the
core purpose of WSS is to act as a scalable site provisioning engine. WSS
provides the services in the purple boxes so developers do not have to create
that code themselves when creating site-oriented and workspace-oriented
applications.

|
|
Finally, point out
that WSS provides a development platform. The Office Server team has used
this platform to build Office Server components and companies and developers
can use WSS to build their own custom solutions.
