I’ve been working with ASP.NET for about 5 years now and I’m looking to get into SharePoint development.

Would it make more sense to get up to speed on SP 2007 first or just dive straight into SP 2010?

Seems like learning SP 2007 would give me a better understanding of the “story” and broaden my work opportunities.

What do we think? Is a grasp of SP 2007 a must for any SP developer at this point?

Thanks

Thanks for the helpful and encouraging answers. Seems the unanimous recommendation is to skip SP 2007 and dive straight into SP 2010 as the dev tools are much better, so I’ll probably do that 🙂

    As I wrote in a previous answer I think people starting should focus on 2010. Depending on your work situation, it may limit you in the types of contract jobs you can take, but the development environment is significantly better in 2010. The only reason to start with 2007 is so you can appreciate how much easier 2010 makes it 🙂
