Phil Haack's piece in the latest MSDN Magazine doesn't cover much in the way of new ground on that front either. I think NuGet would be a great answer for in-house dependency management for some enterprises. I think it may take a larger company using it successfully *and* publicizing that fact before we see examples that we might draw from. Beyond that, I hope to see more commercial tools vendors delivering their products and upgrades through NuGet. I think the delivery mechanism makes a lot of sense for vendors of controls like Telerik or Infragistics.

I'm particularly interested in managing in-house dependencies with it. I've seen a bunch of home-rolled solutions for this and it almost always becomes more painful than it should be. I guess no one really wants to maintain the home-rolled tools. Just looking into NuGet myself. I’m particularly interested in managing in-house dependencies with it.
