This weekend I posted a new release of the MVC Membership Starter Kit. This release is an update to migrate the starter kit to the new interim release of the MVC framework. If you do not feel comfortable using the interim release, please continue using the 1.1 release and wait for Microsoft to release Preview 3. We will update the Starter Kit soon thereafter. [More]

This reminded me that I should probably post the version I have customized, as I think it makes it a bit easier to use and maintain. I've included the code inside. [More]
