Silverlight 2 Beta2 supports a go-live license that allows you to start using and deploying Silverlight 2 for commercial applications. There will be some API changes between Beta2 and the final release, so you should expect that applications you write with Beta2 will need to make some updates when the final release comes out. But we think that these changes will be straight-forward and relatively easy, and that you can begin planning and starting commercial projects now. <br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.dotnetkicks.com/kick/?url=http%3a%2f%2fweblogs.asp.net%2fscottgu%2farchive%2f2008%2f06%2f06%2fsilverlight-2-beta2-released.aspx"><img src="http://www.dotnetkicks.com/Services/Images/KickItImageGenerator.ashx?url=http%3a%2f%2fweblogs.asp.net%2fscottgu%2farchive%2f2008%2f06%2f06%2fsilverlight-2-beta2-released.aspx" border="0" alt="kick it on DotNetKicks.com" /></a> http://www.dotnetkicks.com/silverlight/Silverlight_2_Beta2_Released http://www.dotnetkicks.com/silverlight/Silverlight_2_Beta2_Released Sat, 07 Jun 2008 14:31:02 GMT Nice article on templating in WPF <br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.dotnetkicks.com/kick/?url=http%3a%2f%2fmark-dot-net.blogspot.com%2f2007%2f07%2fcreating-custom-wpf-button-template-in.html"><img src="http://www.dotnetkicks.com/Services/Images/KickItImageGenerator.ashx?url=http%3a%2f%2fmark-dot-net.blogspot.com%2f2007%2f07%2fcreating-custom-wpf-button-template-in.html" border="0" alt="kick it on DotNetKicks.com" /></a> http://www.dotnetkicks.com/wpf/Creating_a_custom_wpf_button_template http://www.dotnetkicks.com/wpf/Creating_a_custom_wpf_button_template Mon, 14 Apr 2008 22:37:39 GMT
