Buzzcast 27, Onsite At MIX06 – Robert Molnar And Aurthur Haddad

This is kinda cool. I was browsing around and checking out all the latest videos on Channel 9 when I decided to do a search for Art Haddad and I found this buzzcast. Basically just interviewing Art about his experiences at MIX06.

“Robert and Arthur talk about their experiences so far at MIX06.  Robert discovered separation of design and development.  Arthur had lunch with some decidedly non-developer folks.”

For those wondering who Art is? He is the architect and lead software engineer for the .NET team at ESRI. While at MIX06 he was interviewed for his experience there.

Art mentioned in the buzzcast that he was checking out Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) and Windows Presentation Foundation Everywhere (WPFE). These are part of the .NET 3.0 framework thats coming from Microsoft.

This is some pretty cool and powerful stuff. There is not much information on WPFE but as I believe it is a subset of WPF intended to compete with flash which makes it really powerful! It will allow for applications to run on different platforms a lot easier and faster! Wahoo!

There’s a cool article here: Getting Started With Windows Presentation Foundation
