The latest addition (in the WPF futures) to the official WPF project on CodePlex is related to the MVVM pattern and refers to this article of The Orbifold. I remember well, I wrote this article on December 12th 2006 (three years ago!) and I don't think it's in any way particularly important. Also, rather strange that it's only now that MVVM (and all things related to that) gets much attention...maybe WPF finally gets some momentum in the enterprise?
About our flashy diagramming framework for Silverlight, how to bind MySQL data to Silverlight via the Entity Framework and ADO.Net data service, how to demo a WCF bound Silverlight application without IIS or a dedicated webserver. Some news about our latest commercial moves and our sleepless nights.
I have completed a fully functional mindmapping application on top of G2 and have used it in the past months internally for various things. This application is, however, not a 'product' or anything you can buy, it's only a proof of concept.It's a test application, a benchmark, a toy model, a fun thing to play with and see how G2 handles various things. Much like the class designer and the database table designer I talked about earlier, it's a way to show off the potential of G2 to you, even though I think this mindmapping application could be a stepping stone to something bigger.
About a little annoyance in XAML.
An excellent set of tutorials on diagramming, but what next? It takes more than ingenuity to move to the next level.
Some after thoughts on porting various layout algorithms to WPF, especially with respect to threading and debugging inside VS2008.
