Possible Duplicate:
What will be the new features available in ASP.Net 4.0?

What all are the New features in asp.net 4.0.? Currently our team is doing project on .net 2.0 and we didn’t go for an upgrade on asp.net 3.5. Now we are preparing to switch from asp.net 2.0 to asp.net 4.0. A list of such features would help us in designing the training program.
