Revelations

I have it from a good source that Whidbey will ship in May. I was as surprised as you are when I found out and a part of me thinks they meant 2006, but the context of the conversation was 2005, so make of it what you will.

Expect more inside MSFT information now that they offered me a job. I wouldn't accept it but, since my company is being taken over by some other company, I thought it was a good time to move. It is not on the CF team as you'd expect, though. Instead the C# team has hired me with my first task being implementing a background compiler for the Orcas release. Stay tuned.

On the Compact Framework front, you will have heard by now that sanity has prevailed and CF 2.0 will be supported on WinCE 4.2 (woohoo)
