Hello,

I am in the process of configuring a new installation of BT2004 developer
edition as a trial.  I currently have a component framework that we built
that acts as a proxy layer to our web services tier.  I want to include the
component framework dll's as references in my BizTalk assembly.  One of our
contractors insists that theses assembiles MUST be Strong-Named in order to
deploy and access them.  We have been using these dll's(assemblies) in our
asp.net implementation for almost a year without Strong-Naming and we have
had no problems.

Is there a limitation on BT 2004 or is there a configuration that we are not
aware of?

TIA,

Tim

BizTalk deploys its artifacts to the GAC and therefore requires strong
names.
