Panopticon Central talks about the likelyhood that what is called "Refactoring" in the C# IDE will be present, but called something else in VB's IDE, presumably because VB programmers will not know what refactoring is. If folks like Julia want VB.NET programmers to be given respect (as they should be) then we need to make sure that the VB.NET IDE is not Dumbed Down.

Folks, if VB.NET programmers are "real programmers", they will, upon being presented with a menu option called Refactoring, go to Deja or elsewhere and discover what refactoring is, presuming they do not already know what it is. Andrew is a proud VB programmer, and I am darn sure he knows what Refactoring is.
