New whitepaper posted on MSDN! 

Groove provides two forms development environments. There is the Groove Forms Tool, and the Groove InfoPath Forms Tool. How do you decide when to use which one?

But wait, InfoPath can do so much more! True, InfoPath is a very powerful forms environment, and the strategic direction for forms development in Office.

Pick the right forms solution for your project, and you'll be "on the happy path", as some would say.  Read the full scoop here:
