Scott Guthrie’s blog post about the upcoming Silverlight 2.0 early next year. He shared in his blog entry of some new features and development about this upcoming release.
Next year we will be releasing a major update of Silverlight that focuses on enabling rich Internet applications. This release will include a cross-platform, cross-browser version of the .NET Framework, and will enable a rich .NET development platform in the browser. Earlier this year we shipped an early Alpha containing some of the basic functionality of the release. Our next public preview will add considerably to this feature set. Some of the new .NET specific features in the next public Silverlight preview will include WPF UI Framework, Rich Controls, Rich Networking Support, and Rich Base Class Library Support.
