Silverlight surfing
Pardon the silver surfer tagline, I just watched the FF trailer, and as Johnny would say "That is so cool".
Over the last week, there have been a flurry of activities in the blogspace surrounding Microsoft's announcement on MIX. John Lam tries to come up with a way to organize all the different things being said about Silverlight and what it means to all developers.
Some highlights are:
- IronRuby is coming.
- VBx anyone?
- DLR and Iron Python/Ruby are being released under the Microsoft Permissive License (a.k.a Open Source). So Mono can just pick it up and use it without the need to re-implement anything under Mono.
All in all, I think this brings about more options/choices for developers on any side of the fence.
