Great Notes from Drew

Drew's got some really great notes coming out of the PDC. Check out this nugget on WinFS Schema and Extensibility. Keep 'em coming Drew.

Ok, it sucks not to be at the PDC

Just IM'd with DonXML and he's working with Chris Sells to get Solitare running in Avalon.

XAML Schema?

Anyone out there (DonXML?) care to ask someone at the PDC if there is a XAML Schema available?

update: it may not be a schema, however it's the next best thing. And it also reminds me of the DHTML elements reference. http://longhorn.msdn.microsoft.com/?//longhorn.msdn.microsoft.com/lhsdk/port_ref_elements.aspx

Now that a pant-load of information is coming out about everything from Longhorn to XAML. One thing that I would like to see is a a date range slider bar on the search page. I know that you can create a query like this “Show me all of the documents from Donny from April 2001 to May 2002”. It seems like date is one of the criteria that's in everything and should have a control to help with the search. I'll throw a mock up out here later, right now I'm just trying to read the flood of info coming from the West coast.

BTW, these are my personal views and do not in anyway represent the GIANT company that just bought our company.
