Excellent article on migrated 2003 web projects to 2005

Brian Goldfarb points on this article with detailed instructions on how to migrate your VS 2003 web projects to VS 2005. Having previously attempted some migrations using beta versions of VS 2005, I can say that some of the issues I ran into are addressed in the article. The particular one I had trouble with involved having 2 web project files in my web app. This was a holdover from some old work I was doing and not even necessary to be there anymore, but was causing no issues in VS 2003. The migration wizard attempts to convert each web project file in the project you migrate, so you end up with duplicate files and references and it just gets really ugly. There are also some good comments on getting a handle on the XHTML validation warnings, which many projects are likely to have a lot of in the beginning.
