The .NET Framework Design Guidelines on MSDN are getting updated but not that frequently. Many people have asked us to publish updates more often. I have been posting such updates here for some time now. Yesterday, I added new guidelines for throwing exceptions. Happy reading.

    The problem with only posting to your blog is that it's not seen as official. I recently performed a review of our C# standards (the feedback I gave is forwarded to our standards body) and I got some push back when I listed blog entries (such as http://blogs.msdn.com/kcwalina/archive/2004/11/03/251722.aspx) as justification for changes I was recommending. The push back was in the form "blogs only represent opinion".

    I want to strongly encourage publishing of official guidance in places which leave no question such guidance is indeed official.
