Straigh bangin' thread!!! XAML is an XML definition that is very low level and no one in their right mind will hand code. Therefore, there will be good editors to write that for you. Catch that? An editor to write XMAL for you.
XML is... what? XML. MXML is... what? XML. Compiling Flex apps to run in Avalon instead of SWF is awesome... but, I'd put my dough (whatever I can scrounge away from the IRS) on Macromedia's ability to capitalize on Longhorns features, thus, I'd rather have Flex output the XAML that is a SWF hybrid; meaning, something like Central that is desktop orientated, like Microsoft's SmartClient, and utilizes the best of both worlds. If only I could accelerate time... or help Microsoft find their arse... As far as pricing, no clue what your talking about; elaborate. ----- Original Message ----- From: "jwc_wensan" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <flexcoders@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Tuesday, July 19, 2005 3:38 PM Subject: [flexcoders] Longhorn Impact To All: Just interested to hear your opinions. Regardless of when Microsoft's Longhorn ships, either mid/late 2006 or even 2007, what are your thoughts on its impact to the RIA development area? Will it force MM's hand on pricing? Other thoughts?
