This has nothing to do with Silverlight. I am not sure about your experience working in large companies, but a decision of this scale takes quite some time to finalize, and get approval for.

Of course, you are a Microsoft evangelist (although your sig and email don't mention it), so I understand your desire to spread the impression that this all happened in the last couple of weeks in response to Silverlight. mike chambers [EMAIL PROTECTED] Scott Barnes wrote: > On 4/26/07, Angus Johnson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Validate, not in-validate.
