"10 Free .NET Development Tools"

Richard Slade : 10 Free .NET Development Tools

Richard Slade has posted a Top 10 list of Free .Net Tools. They are the "Big 10" that you'd pretty much have to be living in a cave to not know about... (Not that there's anything wrong with living in caves... ;)

If the listed tools are so common, why am I posted about it? It has a nice intro into each project ("What is it?"), some screen snaps and is a great single source for the URL's ("Where can I find it?").

Tools listed are:
1. NANT
2. CruseControl.Net
3. NUnit
4. TestDriven.Net
5. RegEx Designer.Net
6. FxCop
7. NDoc
8. NUnitASP
9. Mono
10. NCover

My own Top 10:
1. Lutz Roeder's .NET Reflector
2. Google
3. Paint.Net
4. Cropper
5. MSINC.Plugins library (Also check out the other cool projects at Morrison Schwartz - www.ms-inc.net)
6. SharpDevelop (Also check out the other cool projects at www.ICShareCode.com)
7. DotLucene - The Open Source Search Engine for .NET

Grr... um... Okay, it's my Top 7 List. I seem to have a brain cramp and that's all that comes to mind (besides what Richard already posted about of course)...
