Hi, not many of us left it seems I would love to connect to other SL devs out there I've been developing LoB apps since SL2. Concepts like: MVVM, MEF, WCF,.. are not strange to me. I'm also working with Telerik controls in my apps. Check out one of my last years projects - a CMS fully in SL at http://kbcsm.rexagena.com the app is in croatian but you should get the idea. it loads a little slow because its on a low bandwith server.

Yes this is correct, there are many projects in SL out there and they will need support. So XAML is totally different case. Microsoft will have XAML for a while. WPF will always be there as long as there are desktops :). Similarly, there are still VC++ applications being built everyday. It's just Silverlight that is in trouble.

So we canot say XAML is Completly died. We can use this skill in so many enhancement and support project. I can give reference of some of my good friends if you will tell about work location,Exp Level and mode of payment. I m in Bangalore (india).

Dear @Mahesh Sir, I do agree with you. But there are still lots of organizations who wants their apps done in Silverlight for various reasons. Even when MS has stopped working on SL but I believe they are going to support it at least until 2021. Here is a link to the Silverlight support page http://support.microsoft.com/gp/lifean45 (read the Silverlight 5 tag) SL could still be the first choice for many organizations working on Digital media/ content publication & a support till 2021 is all they need :) I hope there are still a few heavenly souls out there who would want to work on #Silverlight for a few more years to come & parallelly develop their HTML/JS skills. I also hope some of those souls are reading this tonight :P Regards Supreet

Supreet, I was doing lots of Silverlight and WPF but Microsoft has stopped working on SL and has no plans to continue in Future. HTML 5 is (has) replaced it. All Microsoft's new focus is HTML 5 and JavaScript. And now they have TypeScript.

Not a single response :( That's not encouraging. Seems like there are only a few out there who still wants to continue working on their Silverlight/XAML skills?
