Thanks to the ever-productive Adam Macaulay I have a new and working version of my spsfaq2.dwp and an article on How to Create, Implement, and Use a SharePoint Online Gallery.

I also found lots of useful links compiled by Jeff Cate on SharePoint Solutions. This an application of SPS2003 Areas/Topics too!

Here's a link to a tool for monitoring your SPS servers from Microsoft called MOM. Might be helpful to you.

Finally, since SharePoint version 3 will be built on ASP.NET version 2 (Whidbey) there was a few seminars of interest at the PDC in LA in October dealing with Web Parts. Not a huge amount of info, but they may help you, visit here for links to the presentations (visit the Web Services section).
