I've found how to turn a DateTime into an ISO 8601 format, but nothing on how to do the reverse in C#. I have '2010-08-20T15:00:00Z' and I want to turn it into a DateTime object. I could separate the parts of the string myself, but that seems like a lot of work for something that is already an international standard. ...

What experiences (if any) do you have using JIRA Studio for .NET development? My concern is that certain parts of JIRA Studio may not work f...
When you call the BeginInvoke method on a Func delegates (or the Action delegates for that matter) in C#, does the runtime use the ThreadPool or spawn a new thread?
