SSIS custom object … user interface specified by type name could not be loaded

Good Morning Everyone,
I have encountered the following error in BIDS while trying to recreate a coding sample for Creating a Custom Connection Manager for SSIS found at http://sqlsrvintegrationsrv.codeplex.com/releases/view/17652

To be as detailed as possible below is an image of my Solution Explorer for reference.

As you can see I created two projects in my Solution.

The First Project contains the Manager Class
The Second contains the User Interface Class a Custom Form to be associated with the newly developed connection Manager.

After reading the following blog I believe my problem maybe in my definition of my namespaces in the project. http://geekatwork.wordpress.com/2010/03/05/my-first-ssis-custom-task/
The following images are my namespace declarations.

I am a newbie in custom objects for BIDS SSIS but using the references provided by Microsoft as follows I believe I followed all instructions correctly.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms403366.aspx
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms403356%28v=SQL.90%29.aspx

I successful completed the following:
Sign the assembly to be generated with a strong name.
Build the assembly.
Deploy the assembly by moving or copying it to the appropriate Integration Services folder.
Install the assembly in the global assembly cache (GAC).

I am not sure if the reference across the two projects is a problem as well but any assistance in this matter will BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. I also noticed that UI was a EXE. Don't know if that's a possible issue as well. I have been researching this issue for two weeks now and I pride myself on being able to figure out anything but this seems to be an issue I’m going to bring before you guys (the Experts).

I hope I have provided enough reference material for your assistance. If not please let me know and I will provide what is needed. Thanks in advance for any suggestions, comments, and/or help. For those who find this issue I tried to be very detailed but please let me know if you need additional instructions upon us resolving this as in my research I found there are a lot of people out there with the same issue.

The name is fully qualified so did you try adding the SharepointConnMgrUI third time?

Thank You for the quick response. I tried your suggestion but maybe I didn't understand completely. I'm going to illustrate my interpretation of your suggestion. I also read another article that stated that one should not have the namespace and the class name the same. So in my illustration you will see a change in the namespace.

According to your suggestion I tried:

In the article at http://geekatwork.wordpress.com/2010/03/05/my-first-ssis-custom-task/ he explains the correct format for UITypeName should be :
<Class name>,<Dll name>, Verison=<Dll version>, Culture=<Dll Culture>, PublicKeyToken=<PublicKeyToken>

Would this be what you were trying to suggest and can you see if my understanding of your suggest is correct in the illustration.

Thanks Again
