We've had several posts here talking about Live Mesh as a platform, and we've said that we'll tell more of that story at our Professional Developer's Conference in October.  The session list for PDC is now mostly complete, so you can start to get a sense of what we'll have to say about our platform:

Live Platform: New Developer Services and APIs
Live Platform: Building Mesh Applications
Live Platform: Mesh Services Architecture Deep Dive
Live Platform: Architecture and Advanced Programming Techniques
Live Platform: Building Applications with Social Data
Live Platform: FeedSync and Mesh Synchronization Services
Live Platform: Notifications, Awareness, and Communications
Live Platform: The Future of the Device Mesh

We're working on a couple more sessions as well that we hope to unveil once the conference starts.  And our VP, David Treadwell, is confirmed as a keynote speaker.

They'll be a bunch of folks from the Live Platform team spending time in the community areas at PDC, and we're looking forward to your feedback and suggestions, and hearing what you plan to build on top of our platform.
