I'm totally wrong. I meant to write .NET (not ASP.NET) and .NET isn't even a language, so I'm doubly wrong. It's probably been four years since I've touched the code :\

It isn't written in VB and never was. In 2000 it was written in classic ASP (vbscript) and c++. Probably a few years after that it was converted to Wasabi, which at the time was very close to VBScript, but is now equivalent to C#. For the last few years it is shipped as a .NET product on both windows and unix, and the /Dev.html page you cited is accurate. (The articles you cited from four years ago aren't accurate anymore).
