Silverlight 2 Beta 2 Coming
At TechEd yesterday the next beta release of Silverlight 2 was announced to come out later this week.
In Beta 2 you'll be much closer to seeing the complete subset of WCF that has been ported to the Silverlight platform. In particular, the work we've done around JSON, configuration, extensibility, and adherence to the general WCF client programming model will be ready for you to play with. All of this functionality has been packed down into an extremely small download size to meet the goals of Silverlight. You'll also be getting a better WCF experience thanks to improvements to the underlying network stack that we've been able to take advantage of.
You can get the download in pieces for the SDK, runtime, and other components; or, you can get it all in one package using the link below.
