I spent most of the day Monday at ReMIX07 in Cambridge, MA. I got there a little late, just in time for Miguel de Icaza's Linux/Moonlight demos near the end of Brad Abrams' keynote. Fortunately, Brad has already blogged a summary of his whole talk: ReMix Boston Keynote thoughts. I can verify firsthand that he got a good reception.
I heard a good talk by Rocky Lhotka (a developer) and Tony Handley (a designer), both of Magenic, about how they collaborated on a WPF project. It was originally supposed to be a Silverlight project, but Silverlight 1.0 doesn't have a Text Box control, and the application requires a lot of text input.
After lunch, I had a good discussion with Ed Blankenship and Grant Hinkson of Infragistics about their collaboration on a WPF reference project, Tangerine. I also had some very interesting discussions during and after lunch with several designers about how they felt about what Microsoft had been showing them.
I want to digest all this before I draw any conclusions. More soon.
