It looks like not working with MVC 2 RC. It throws

This is the best thing I have ever seen… Thank you for this great concept… Can you explain some basic steps to build something like this?

Anyway, thank you very much for building and giving out this tool…

In the current version, moderation is done via Sql Management Studio. A better moderation system is coming in a future version.

Is there any chance we could get a video or some screenshots to look at the moderation features?

Thanks,
Andy

@Mark - Thanks for the feedback. I’ve addressed the issue you raised in the latest build (available on codeplex). The release now includes the default “templates” (as .ascx files) that you can simply include in your project and start modifying. Let me know what you think.
