My biggest turnoff about ASP.NET MVC is the lack of documentation, namely a cohesive manual. I find the handful of links to blog posts at
http://www.asp.net/mvc/overview ridiculous and absolutely not befitting the
only modern web development framework promoted by Microsoft.
Take a look at the great Django manual (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.4/) to see what I mean.

I work with the ASP.NET team to coordinate some of the content for this site. We're always interested to hear what you like and don't like about the site, what you'd like to see more of, etc. Thoughts?

I've never understood their sick obsession with attributes. When I first started using MVC, I thought it was clever to add HttpPost, HttpDelete, etc... After using a real routing library and then bringing one into my MVC project, it just looks, well... stupid. Gone are my RPC method names. Gone are my untestable Http method -> Action routing. Gone are my magical behavior mixed in due to something in a square bracket.

It's good to see Microsoft investing time and resource to recognize community contributions. They should open similar platforms for Mobile, Azure, SQL and Windows Developers too. www.windowsclient.net used to be a good resource for Windows App programmers, but it's been abandoned

Slightly off topic but I'm finding it difficult to find this information: How long are ASP.NET MVC releases supported for with bug fixes? MVC4 is out now and presumably next year MVC5 will be out -- does MVC4 continue to receive bug fixes?

I can't figure out why MVC and WebAPI are separate products.

Oh man do I feel more and more pushed to upgrade our codebase to MVC4...
