We spend a lot of time unit, functional and user testing applications. How do we ensure our production deployments get those tested applications into production in an automated, repeatable fashion that we have tested for?

Love to hear other thoughts on this.

Chris and I were talking about DI and thought of a collaborative practical ALT.NET session.

It would be extremely helpful to share production DI and IoC implementations. We're interested in rich and web clients using any sort of MVC or MVVM patterns (these seem to provide great DI problems). The discussion can bleed into strengths and weaknesses of certain containers. Identifying common problems and workarounds. And even sharing DI code smells we couldn't fix in our own applications.

Real production code is preferred, but sanitization may be required by some.

There are a lot of ways and reasons to implement equality in .NET. I'd like to talk about the whys
* DDD's concept of value objects
* ORMs use in persisting and caching
* Hashsets

And the hows
* Reference equality
* Nullity
* Hash space
* Initialized and uninitialized objects
