WSS SP2 event handler changes

Updated 19/12/2005

Windows SharePoint Services SP2 Event Handler changes - incompatible with K2.net SP2a

Microsoft recently released WSS SP2 that contains some nice enhancements to the core WSS engine, new site and list templates and much better integration capabilities with Microsoft InfoPath 2003.

Some much needed updates to the way SharePoint event handlers impersonate users at last took place in this service pack.

Unfortunately, this influences the way current event handlers that run on the non-SP2 object model. For this reason, the event handlers from SharePoint that invokes K2.net processes does not work after upgrading your SharePoint to Service Pack 2. K2 current recommends avoiding upgrading SharePoint until a hot fix for K2.net 2003 is available.

Added: K2.net 2003 SP2a hot fix released - see comments.
