The sessions were sponsored by the people at Telerik: at each session, I got to give away some cool prices from Telerik, including in each city a Telerik Ultimate Collection!
I’ll be posting the pictures asap.

Yesterday, I gave a presentation at ReMix 2010 in Belgium, the third edition of this annual Microsoft event. My talk, Building an end-to-end Silverlight 4 application – Writing your Christmas Cards with Silverlight, was focused around the new and existing features in Silverlight 4, helping developers building Silverlight Line-Of-Business applications. These included data access, data binding, hardware access, drag and drop, right-clicking, Out-Of-Browser and Trusted applications.

I totally forgot to upload these to my blog :)

Anyway, this is the slide deck and the demos for my talks at SiXin (the Silverlight and User Experience user group) in the Netherlands two weeks back.

There were a couple of questions that I wanted to check answers to;

• How many concurrent connections are allowed on the HTTP client stack – I took a stab at 6 which looks to be the answer based on this MSDN page.
• Does Silverlight really support SOAP 1.2? I said that I was 86% sure that it did and the MSDN page here does indeed say that SOAP 1.2 is supported.

I was insanely ambitious thinking I could cover all those in one talk, but it was a fun talk nonetheless. It was a very interactive crowd with a lot of great questions about Silverlight in general, RIA Services, Entity Framework and other broader technology topics.

At Community Day 2010, together with Bart Wullems, I gave a session called Building an enterprise application with Silverlight and NHibernate.
