OK I am surely going to be flame on this one but hey it's just my small opinion,and I like to debate ;-)

Do we really need another elite ?

I know it's history in our modern world to have the elite and the plebe.

Is .Net really need another group than MVPs ? The advantage is surely to be more Microsoft independent.
I know for sure that MVPs are really nominated for their expertise and it's easy to see why.
But ASP insiders !?!?

Probably I miss the point but it looks for me like the nth secte having their meeting in a obscure chamber of a gothic castle.

Some members (and no doubt in my mind  that you have great names here !) are already MVP so what is reallty the goal.

Shouldn't we be more embracing a whole community, open our doors to every developer?
For example Weblog.asp.net,Dotnetjunkies and the others are surely contributing to make .Net something everybody talk in town.
Well as I repeat many times, I am open mind and I am also a listener.
