With all the hullaballoo around Silverlight 4 today during today’s keynote at PDC09, there was a lot of buzz on Twitter about WPF being dead.
Nothing could be further from the truth.
Despite the fact that it didn’t get much fanfare, there’s still a lot in going on in the WPF space.
There are quite a few WPF sessions which Rob Relyea was thoughtful enough to highlight in this blog post.
If you’re not lucky enough to make it to the PDC, or you’re sticking close to home waiting on your first child to be born :), then these sessions will be available online later in the week.
