More goodness from the IIS team.

Two more updates from the IIS team are available.

A new one that has not been seen before by the public is a "Media Pack" that adds bit rate throttling to to IIS 7. In other words, if you have .WMV on your site that people play, why send it faster than they can play it? This little gem can instantly reclaim bandwidth that is wasted when the client clicks away and tosses unplayed bits they recieved but did not use. 

Also, a stand alone IIS Manager that you install on client systems to do remote authentication has been released.

These are "technical previews", not fully released code so if you want to provide feedback, please do. The Forums on IIS.net is a good place to that.
