The package is written with .NET, has a well defined BLL, and utilizes SQL Server for the database. The design calls for a clear delineation between data access and services (BLL) and UI.

When I create a user control in WPF it would appear that all the children of this control are declared as internal? I've not been able to verify this, nor finding any resources discussing this matter at all. I can access the controls in the same assembly, but not in a project referencing the assembly where the user control is located. I...

Therefore is there a set of guidlines anyway as to what to log so as to get a reasonable cost/benefit trade off? Therefore: What kinds of logging should one...

I am trying to make an Http POST to an Apache web server. I am finding that setting ContentLength seems to be required for the request to work.
