Silverlight 2 Roadmap
According to a posting by Ashish Thapliyal, a Microsoft developer in
Bangalore, India in his own blog, the company is shooting to unleash
Beta 2 of Silverlight 2 in May.
"We are targeting late Summer [for final release]," Thapliyal's post has said.
Beta 2 will also feature what Microsoft calls a "Go Live" license, which enables developers to write commercial applications using the beta code, the post has continued. Beta 1 comes with a "non-commercial" Go Live license.
The blog post has also disclosed that the move from Beta 1 to Beta 2 would cause developers some problems, although Thapliyal did not describe them.
"There will be breaking changes between Beta 1 and Beta 2 of Silverlight 2
but the changes will not be drastic between Beta 2 and [the] Final Release ….
Also, if you develop your websites using 1.0, it will be compatible when 2.0
comes out …. There is only one Silverlight so all the capabilities of 1.0 will
be unified in the 2.0 release," the poster has said.
