It's harder than I thought

So now it's the second day of my new project and there are more things to do that I have exspected.
These are the problems:

• There no on site customer in sight
• From the four people assigned to my project three are still working on the old product

People are new to

• .NET
• C#
• Visual Studio 2005 (so they do not know about ReSharper or ViEmu)
• Design Patterns
• PoEAA
• Source control
• Automated builds
• Continuous Integration
• OO programming
• Refactoring
• Domain Driven Design (well, I didn't dare to ask)
• Automated developer tests
• Automated acceptance tests
• IoC and containers
• Layered architectures
• O/RM

I could extend the list even more. This seems daunting. Every bit of knowledge I took for granted in my old project is just not there. So I have to start from scratch

 

Enough complaints. Here are the things I plan to get the team started.

• Quick intro into VS 2005
• Hands on: How to write Hello World in C#
• Hands on: Hello World 2007: Greeting is comming from a ClassLibrary
• Wrap up References: Binary, Project, COM, WebServices
• C# 1 - Types: Classes, Interfaces, Enums, Structs || Value Types -- Reference Types || Build in Value Types
• C# 2 - Statements: method call, if..else, Nested if statements, switch statment, goto, while loop, do..while loop, for loop, continue and break, block statement.
• C# 3 - Operators: Assignment, +-*/, %, += -= *= /= %=, Prefix and Postfix ++ --, Relational == < <= > >= !=, Logical && || !, Short Circuit Evaluation, Ternary Operator ? :, Precedence of Operators

to be continued later...
