I have a public facing hobby site that gets about 3000 unique visitors a day, written in classic ASP that is in bad need of a revamp and redesign. I've faced the realization that an upgrade to ASP.net is the best way to go to implement features that are just too hard in ASP for the hobbyist (consuming RSS feeds, authentication and user ...
How come there are a lack of Controls for ASP.NET MVC?

Is there an easy way to get the MvcRouteHandler to convert all hyphens in the action and controller sections of an incoming URL to underscores as hyphens are not supported in method or class names.
