Assuming you have Windows, you have no trouble obtaining one of the .NET
SDK's (not the "Windows Platform SDK", but the ".NET SDK" with C#, VB.NET,
samples, etc etc) - you will find two trees in that install; QuickStart\,
and Samples\. You can make either of those an Alias + AspNetMount, enable
AspNet Files in the appropriate <directory >, and run either the MakeAll.bat
file or just nmake the makefile in the sample/quickstart directory you want
to take for a spin.
If you install VisualStudio .NET (2002) or later - you probably already
installed the .NET SDK as part of that installation... so it comes free.

This user likely didn't. Most users likely won't. To compile it, install
the original VisualStudio .NET (at least the C/C++ and .NET components of the
product) and simply follow the instructions in the tarball's README.
Now - I realize it's almost absurd to ask people to go back to the original
.NET version of VisualStudio (2002) but you have to recognize that Microsoft
substantially redesigned *the language C++.NET* between 2002 and 2003, and
started virtually from scratch between 2003 and 2005 Visual Studio.
If this project had the wherewithal to oversee mod_aspdotnet, the next step
of it's evolution was clearly identified as migrating to 2005. There is the
'light' version available of C++.NET. But it's not a trivial migration, and
not worth my time or effort if the module's not hanging around (hell - I wasted
too many cycles on preparing to release build 2004 and updating all of the
documentation contexts as well to integrate it better into the httpd project).
So, this was my basis for a 'last call' on the VisualStudio .NET 2002 flavor,
with every major problem for the VS .NET/2002 builds resolved.
So do what every project asks you to do, read the README in the .zip ball :)
Note that it's out of date in one respect; installer (now compiled from the
InstallShield 11.5 flavor) can no longer integrate into the build schema. You
would get more out of reading the 'deployment notes' section of;
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/mod_aspdotnet/trunk/README.txt
Since README is out-of-date with respect to "installer"; I'll whack that note.
