Trouble opening IronRuby.sln

Ruby IronRuby
1

I am having trouble opening the latest (rev 101) IronRuby with
VisualStudio
2005. Nothing happens at all when I try to open IronRuby.sln - not even
an
error message. I have been able to open the individual .csproj files by
themselves and get everything put together, just not the top level .sln
file. Is it expected that the source will still work with VS2005 or do
I
need to move to VS2008 or could my issue be something else?

I know I don’t have any problems opening with VS 2008. Is anyone else on
the list still using VS 2005?

Thanks,

Yes, I still use VS 2005. I have the same problem trying to open 2008
solution files. I just create my own VS 2005 solution file and add the
existing projects to it - it works fine. Inside each project I also need
to manually redefine the references to mscorlib and System.dll version
2.0.5.0.
