BizTalk Busines Rule Engine at MOCSDUG on 10/2/2008

I presented on the BizTalk Business Rule Engine at MOCSDUG last week.  The crowd seemed very interested based on the questions and feedback I received.  Richard Broida asked a good question regarding the ability to use Value Types in the BRE Composer when referencing .NET Classes.  See the screenshot below.  Only type close to the Int32 value type in the .NET Classes pane is an Int32Converter class.  It appears that the .NET Classes pane is configured to return only reference types.
