I have spoken to a lot of people about Silverlight and in particular the upcoming release SilverLight 1.1 in recent weeks.  That release will include a scaled down version of the CLR.  This will bring .NET programing paradigm into the browser.  Which I feel is huge.

Today it was announced that Silverlight 1.1 will be called Silverlight 2.0.  Which I believe makes tremendous sense.  It is a major release with significant changes and really should have never been a dot release.

The Beta Version of Silverlight 2.0 will be released in Q1 of 2008 and will have a go-live license.  So I suggest you continue to work the the CTPs and get the Beta when it is release and consider putting it in your applications.  It will give you a definite edge over your competitors.

That's it for now
