What are the differences between the ASP languages?

I hear many terms related to ASP-
ASP.NET
ASP
.NET
DotNet
and I think some more.

I would assume .NET and DotNet are the same.

I am an experience web developer with a background in PHP/JSP.

What are the differences, purposes, open/closed-sourceness, and syntax styles of all the above, and any of their neighbors I didn't mention?
 
There is ASP classic, and ASP.NET. I personally don't like .net because of the markup it generates. I want control of what the server is generating.

ASP Classic is similar to PHP in that you have control of what the script is doing.

If I were you, though, I would leave Microsoft alone. Nothing open source about them.
