.net3.5

If I recall correctly, this is fine, the different versions coexist peacefully, but I just want to double-check there's no possibility of problems (I'm installing the newer version of the .net framework on an older production server in preparation for upgrading a critical asp.net 1.1 app to 3.5 in the near future).
