Notes from the ASP.NET Community Standup – November 22, 2016

This is the next in a series of blog posts that will cover the topics discussed in the ASP.NET Community Standup. The community standup is a short video-based discussion with some of the leaders of the ASP.NET development teams covering the accomplishments of the team on the new ASP.NET Core framework over the previous week. Join Scott Hanselman, Damian Edwards, Jon Galloway and an occasional guest or two discuss new features and ask for feedback on important decisions being made by the ASP.NET development teams.

This week the team hosted the standup on Aerial Spaces.  Every week’s episode is published on YouTube for later reference. The team answers your questions LIVE and unfiltered. This is your chance to ask about the why and what of ASP.NET! Join them each Tuesday on live.asp.net where the meeting’s schedule is posted and hosted.

Question and Answers

Question:  Will there be MVC 4 project support in Visual Studio 2017?

Question: How for along is the basic pipeline API?

Question: When will URL based cultural localization be available?

— It’s available now.  With ASP.NET Core 1.1  Middleware as MVC filters.

In this example from the ASP.NET Core 1.1 announcement we used a route value based request culture provider to establish the current culture for the request using the localization middleware.

The team will be back on Tuesday the 29th of November to discuss the latest updates on ASP.NET Core.  See you then!
