There are blogs on MSDN popping up that SilverLight 2 is indeed gold and will be public tomorrow Oct 14th. They also announced Silverlight Tools for Eclipse with the promise of cross platform development for Silverlight. I think this is a huge step in the right direction for MS. By giving developers on OS's other than windows to do Silverlight Development in a fairly competent IDE it will give them a better position against Flex.

I have done some playing around in Silverlight 2 and really loved it. I'm just hoping for a Silverlight 2 project to come our way at Sierra Bravo.

I look forward to downloading the public bits and seeing what I can do with the full version.
