Saturday morning I’ll have the chance to catch an airplane for a direct flight from Paris to Seattle. For the very first time I’ll be part of the MVP Summit in Redmond.
I’ll be the perfect opportunity to meet other MVPs and discuss the future of WPF & Silverlight. Hopefully, I’ll also meet many of the WPF Disciples ! As you probably know, this event is under NDA so unfortunately I’ll not be able to discuss the news we’ll have there until they are public.
A great news for me for the beginning of this new year. I just joined the WPF Disciples group.
For those who doesn’t know what WPF Disciples is, it’s a group of people talking about WPF (and now also about Silverlight and Windows Phone 7). You can follow discussions of the disciples from the Google group home page or by using this RSS feed.
Very talented software engineers are part of this group; some of them are from Microsoft but most of them are from other companies all around the world. It’s a real honor to be part of it.
I’m hoping to meet some of the disciples in person during the MVP Summit at the end of February in Seattle. A particular thank you to Marlon and Sacha (and other administrators) for letting me join the gang 🙂
With the beginning of the new year, it’s the perfect time to take a step back and take a look at the past year. 2010 was a very rich year both on the technical plan (release of .Net 4, VS2010, WP7…) and personal (organization of the VS2010 launch event, MVP nomination…). Let’s see what happened in 2010 and some perspective for 2011.

No major revolution here. I’ll continue to blog about WPF, Silverlight and Windows Phone 7. I’ll continue to give feedback right after major MS conferences (Mix, PDC…)
Happy new year to all of you, thank you for taking time to read this blog and to share your opinions using comments 🙂
