Hi - with ref to my other forum post on the specific WebDeploy forum several days ago : http://forums.iis.net/t/1180561.aspx -
These public APIs mentioned in the marketing... ...where are they?
There seems to be loads of information about using Web Deploy, but the Public APIs mentioned I can find next to no information for. There's this awful list of classes on MSDN: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.web.deployment(v=vs.90).aspx
Which is pretty useless. The site basically says 'Use Web Deploy to programmatically deploy!', before following that up with absolutely nothing. No resources, no links, no articles, ...
Googling gives that MSDN link (with no explanation as to correct use of the API), then there's a download link at http://blogs.iis.net/moshaikh/archive/2010/03/08/web-deploy-api-web-application.aspx - which wraps up the API in a much bigger app, and in fact
*wraps* the Web Deploy API! What's the point of the API at all if it needs wrapping in a simple app??
If you say 'Public API', perhaps it's worth at least linking to it, or giving a simple example?
Perhaps someone in the know at MS could spend 30 minutes putting together a simple guide, or 5 seconds DELETING the phrase "public APIs" from http://www.iis.net/download/webdeploy - please?

Hi,
Have you checked the "Spotlight" section http://learn.iis.net/ or rss feed ? .
Web Deploy http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/1082/web-deploy-parameterization/ has updated information.
I hope this helps.
