Next ASP.NET Version - Incremental or Major?

I understand that .NET Framework 3.5 is currently in Beta-2, with initial
TRM expected sometime near the end of this year, with the big-time launch in
February.

Question: Are there major changes to ASP.NET that we can expect? Or would
this be considered as an "incremental" update.

I'm asking because I'm about to launch a major refactoring effort on a
large/complex ASP.NET 1.1 Web application... just wondering if I should go
with 2.0 right now or if it would be smart to wait for 3.5. Is there
anything in 3.5 (ASP.NET-specific) that is worth waiting for?

Thanks.
 
I'd say it leans slightly toward the minor incremental side of the scale.
 
If I had a dollar for every time Microsoft renames an existing technology,
or
comes out with a name for something "new" that's confusing to developers,
you
would not be reading my posts here.

I'm assuming, then, that you are saying that the 3.5 version of the
Framework is NOT a major upgrade (not like, for example, the upgrade from
1.1 to 2.0)... Yes?

Yes.

Wait for the .Net Framework 4.0 for a major upgrade.
