Shawn Wildermuth has a post up that he's looking for input on: RIA Services - Still Not Baked Yet


From:

If this is the same post from the other day, I thought it was just a demo but Julien Frelat has all the code up for QuakeLight... yowzer... and the demo looks really good!

Wow... this is going to get legs... Mark Monster has begun a 3-parter on building an OpenID user control in Silerlight... very nice!

Charlie Robbins has provided a Drag and Drop Behavior for us using the System.Interactivity library in Silverlight 3. He ends with some discussion points and a link to the code.

Lee updated his dataform sample from 3/18 to Silverlight 3 including a workaround that allows him to display the proper text when a value is chosen in the AutoCompleteBox.

Jonathan van de Veen not only has part 17 of his application up, but this is number 42 on a blog named 'developers 42'... pretty cool, Jonathan... oh and this post is about binding to Combobox.SelectedItem through a custom dependency property.... and thanks for the shoutout too:)

Faisal has a good Part 1 for a series on.NET RIA Services... beginning with what the heck is it... that's a good start:) He goes on from there to build a new project and add views.

Karim goes well beyond Hellow World with this Custom Behavior sharing the visual state of controls bound to the same data object... just look at his demo:)

Brad Abrams keeps on going with his Business Apps example and this time he uses the Class Library project to refactor the web project.

Simple column labels you can create at home! [Re-Templating the Silverlight/WPF Data Visualization ColumnDataPoint to add annotations]

David Anson shows us how to add annotations to a Chart column by getting into the template... this might be a good one to stuff in your pocket, and also the sample data method too:)

Falling in the "Picture worth a thousand words" category, Hanu Kommalapati has a great diagram up of the Silverlight 2/Silverlight 3 scenario.

Stay in the 'Light!
