    Hi Brad, I really enjoyed the podcast. Thanks to you and Tim for accepting the interview with the Herding Code folks. I'm curious about the "Application Corner" which I heard mentioned on the podcast and I've seen called out on the Silverlight.net forums.  Like a number of developers, I'm really looking forward to seeing some full-blown Silverlight application samples.  There was a comment made on the podcast, and unless I heard incorrectly, I believe the "Application Corner" is scheduled to roll this week.  Did I hear this correctly? Should we expect a big announcement once it's in place?  Thanks.

    Hey Tim; I'm sure this new "Application Corner" will not be a dead resource. On the contrary, I think there is a huge hunger for that. My first question is, is this application going to use ADO.Net Data Services for CRUD or will you be using the more manual style using WCF? Secondly, for Authentication/authorization, will you continue based on some of the older videos you showed or what? Thanks Tim! ..Ben

    BenHayat: The first apple will be simple CRUD using Astoria, yes.  The Auth/auth :-) will expand beyond the "how to setup" initially to show some actual uses and protecting the services, etc.  We'll eventually get into more things like implementing MVP/MVVM pattern styles.

    I've been assured from MS staff since August that the APp Corner would be up and running so. Excuses after apologies, I was given a reason why it wasn't up yet. Here it is December 1, 2008 and still no Appliction Corner on Silverlight. I am sure Tim will over his usual apologies.
