re: Comments on Designers and Developers working together

Daniel,

Feel free to ask me more questions regarding the design/code separation on my blog if you'd like :) - I think I replied to your last question a few days ago.

I know it sounds too good to be true ;) although as John pointed out this is not HTML and it integrates all native controls and primitives needed by designers to define the view to hook to the code/model. This allowed us to think about the tools WHILE the platform is being worked on and provide our feedback to ensure the best workflow possible.

Take care

Model/View/ViewModel sounds promising

John,

Thanks for the thoughtful reply. Specifically re: "m/v/vm" idea - I'd be eager to hear more about it, but it sounds like the idea would be to abstract, not only the "model" classically understood, but also the view or application interaction state, as distinct from the presentation layer?

Cheers - Daniel
