Where did my strongly-typed action link has gone in ASP.NET MVC?

<%= Html.ActionLink<EquipmentController>(c=>c.Show(equipment.Number, equipment.Letter), "See") %>

If you have converted your old ASP.NET MVC Preview * application to ASP.NET MVC beta or following tutorials that were made with those old versions, you may have wondered where the strongly-typed action is gone.

The reason is because of some features that can still evolve in future release of ASP.NET MVC. And since it will be fully supported in the version 1 of the product, and for backward compatibility, they cannot include it in the released assemblies. But, fear not, the feature is available in the ASP.NET MVC Futures assembly.
