Convert classic ASP to 1.1 or 2.0 ASP.NET Version

Hello. I didn't see the answer to this question posted anywhere else so I
apologies off the bat if it is a re-post. I have a fairly large classic ASP
application that I need to convert to .NET. The time frame that I need to
hit production with it is June/July. At this point I'm torn between updating
this application to ASP.NET using the 1.1 framework or ASP.NET using the 2.0
framework. I don't want to have to spend the time and money to convert to
1.1 and find that it is already out dated. But I also don't want to deliver
a production app that is built on a framework still in beta. Any advise or
suggestions would be much appreciated. Are there any real world examples of
bigger organizations using ASP.NET 2.0 in a prod environment now?

Thanks so much in advance.
 
No asp2 apps in production as its not been formally released yet, and any
suggested dates may slip.

I would not suggest moving an app to asp2 yet, 1.1 is stable enough to cut
your teeth on the framework and that particular runtime will be around for
some time. Dont worry about migrating it to 2 until there are features
(stable ones) that make it financially a viable proposition.
