Great posts Dan! Thanks a lot. I've been waiting for the wrap up since Friday and enjoed it greatly.

It would be interesting to see how one can retrofit your ideas into 2.0 based apps. Like CAB/SCSF based. Any comments on that?

Unfortunately, I don't know much about CAB/SCSF. Maybe someone else can comment.

Thank you Dan for this great series! I like it very much! I actually use some ideas of your concepts for 3D. What im currently looking for is activating / deactivating for DataModels, which are databined to 3D models. It's a little bit complicated, because none of 3D classes expose any events like "Loaded" or "Unloaded" like FrameworkElements do. I saw you also use 3D in Max. What were your tactics with 3D & DM-M-VM pattern?

In Max, the models were displayed in VisualBrushes. We had to set the visual brushes as logical children of the 2D view that hosts the 3D view and when we did that, we got loaded and unloaded events. If you aren't using visual brushes, you could do something like add an interface that your models implement and have the 2D view that hosts the 3D look for models with that interface in its loaded/unloaded handlers.

I thought I should add a post with the full list of posts in the D-V-VM pattern. They are: DataModel-View-ViewModel
