Silverlight Beta 2 Releasing Today?
A lot of people are waiting expectantly for the release of beta 2 of Silverlight 2.0. Dave, for instance, is watching a number of blogs and twitter. However, I just saw on Barak Cohen's Silverlight News blog that it is available today. He doesn't have a live link though and just says that:
Silverlight 2 will be available on download center and on http://microsoft.com/silverlight
Hmm.. Today is quickly coming to a close so maybe it will be released tonight? Keep an eye out.
Update: You can get a preview of the new Beta 2 tools that are coming here:
- WCF templates for Silverlight Enabled.
- Build configurations.
- XAML Validation now reports build errors.
- Setup Improvements.
- Projects created in Beta 1 are prompted for conversion when opening to Beta 2.
- Linking a Web Site to a Silverlight Application.
Check the post for a description of each of those. Lots of goodies!
