Hi, We're currently running on IIS6, but hoping to move to IIS 7 soon. We're moving an existing web forms site over to ASP.Net MVC. We have quite a few legacy pages which we need to redirect to the new controllers.

I'm fairly new to ASP.MVC. For our new Web application I'm considering between two options for view engines: Using some of the available view engines (the default one, NVelocity, Brail, etc.) as a primary view code generator. Implementing an application-specific C# DSL for generating HTML code so that the main bulk of the view code is ...
