| Richard Costall |
| Excellent meeting to end the year - huge turnout for December - See you all in 2008! |
| Conan Ablewhite |
| [UIPOLICE] "Mr Entertainment" himself is docked one point for gratuitous use of green on red in a demo ;) [/UIPOLICE] |
| Conan Ablewhite |
| Plenty of interesting examples; having concentrated more on the Expression Design side in my work, it was helpful to see code-based demos running in VS2008. One day I'll get myself a laptop and really get my hands dirty with this stuff. * docked one point for the Hawaiian t-shirt ;) * |

| An added bonus, this one - hadn't had any exposure to XSLT before tonight, but came away feeling as though I had a reasonably good handle on what it entailed. Nice presentation Chris. |
| Raymond Starkey |
| Such a pleasure to see a real expert in operation |
| Richard Brown |
| Great idea to incorporate the calendar into lots of small demo's. As a result we covered a lot of topics albeit at a fairly high level. |
| Chris Sexton |
| I thought the overall format was great - I think this format would really work as a quick low-down on lots of technologies. More like a cookbook - nothing like seeing the stuff in action. Really good balance between Rich and Chris's stuff. |
| Chris Sexton |
| Great demos here, good coverage of what the development experience is like, and the real stuff like timelines, input, animations. All served up in inimitable style - nice one Santa Costall! |
| Dave Evans |
| Liked the food... A change from pizza. |
| Ian Russell |
| Really enjoyed the evening. The atmosphere was excellent and I bagged 2 items of swag! The guys in the office are very jealous of my Silverlight mug. I prefer pizza over pie and chips. |
| Ian Russell |
| Excellent introduction to the topic. Poor taste in music and colour schemes! The format suited the evening perfectly. |
| James Coulter |
| Rich got the short straw and did most of the mini-presentations. Richard gave an overview of several different aspects of Silverlight and illustrated some of its more useful capabilities. |
| John Price |
| An excellent session Chris, even having to put up with Rich stealing most of the presentation. Now that would sound like a setup if Rich had written the calendar app.... now that I think of it...hmmm |
| Stuart Wells |
| Not especially familliar with XSLT, although have used it before and am very familliar wil XML. I didn't realise XSLT was as supported in VS as it is (debugging etc) - was well presented and opened my eyes somewhat to how it all works. |

Richy the Silverlight Developer |
| Rich the Web Developer had some very HTML code.And if you ever saw him, you would even say it runs. All of the other developers used to laugh and call him names. They never let poor Rich join in developing games. Then one foggy Mix Eve Scott Guthrie came to say: "Rich with your code so bright, won't you install Silverlight tonight?" Then all the developers loved him as they shouted out with glee, Rich the Silverlight developer, you'll go down in history! |

The XSLT nugget |
Dave says the world is full of two types of people – those who love XSLT and those who haven’t used it yet. In this session Chris Sexton takes you through the first steps of understanding XSLT and how Visual Studio supports it so you can see what all the fuss is about.
