Silverlight 2 RC0 is Available!

Silverlight 2 RC0 has just been released and, as usual, Scott Guthrie has punctuated the release with another informative blog post.

Summarizing Scott's post, here are a few of the things to expect from RC0:

  • Bug Fixes
  • ComboBox
  • PasswordBox
  • ProgressBar
  • MessageBox.Show()
  • New Control Skins (Much Nicer!)
  • General Improvements various Subsystems

Of course, you can also download a more comprehensive list of breaking changes.

It's also worth noting that this release is staggered in such a way that only the developer runtime has been released.  This was done purposely to allow developers time to update their applications before end users begin downloading.  This should allow developers to quickly switch to the RTM release when it arrives.  Looks like the final release will be here soon!  Enjoy!
