OK, I'm ready to ship this project and move on to the next one. Fixing the last few bugs is never any fun.

Hello World in C# on Java - Yes, now you can compile your C# code into JARs. Well, for some subset of the language, anyhow. (via Jeroen Frijters)
Exchange Server 2007 Beta 2 and Forefront Security for Exchange Beta - Assuming you've got a spare 64-bit server hanging around, you can start playing with the next generation of Exchange. You can also download the matching SDK or read the press release. CRN had the first review out that I saw.
CarbonTools PRO for .NET - Software toolkit for all sorts of mapping and location stuff that talks to all the major mapping APIs (and a bunch of ones I've never heard of)
Rally Launches New Enterprise Edition and Agile Accelerator Services - The latest of a batch of products I've seen to support agile development.
NProject - Software project and content management system inspired by Trac but with a Mono/.NET focus. Wiki, CruiseControl.NET integration, Castle, MonoRail, issue management, project calendar, more. Pre-alpha, have fun.

Health monitoring in ASP.NET 2.0 - How to set up your config file to e-mail you on all application errors. (via DotNetKicks)
Packet School 101 - Start of a series on using Ethereal for network monitoring. (via Darrell Norton)
