Late last night my team also posted the VS 2008 Web
Deployment project download option for VS 2008. Web Deployment projects
can be used with either the "Web Site" or "Web Application
Project" options built-into VS 2008, and provide a few additional build,
packaging and deployment options for you to use. You can read an old tutorial post of mine here to learn more about they
work.
This week's VS 2008 Web Deployment Project download supports all of the existing features provided by the VS 2005 web deployment download. It
also adds additional support for:
Easily migrating VS 2005 Web Deployment Projects to VS 2008
Web Deployment Projects
Replacing output only if web deployment builds succeed
