This is what Adam has to say "I'm going through the very last revisions, but in parallel the book has now appeared on Safari as a "Rough Cut." What is a Rough Cut? The almost-final chapters in "raw" unformatted HTML."

But is this going to be a case of a book being obsolete just as its published? I thought Silverlight 1.1 was just around the corner...

It kind of reminds me of a Java core book I once owned.

Take a look at the Dr. Sneath interview for the distinction between 1.0 and 1.1:

I wish the book would cover both too.

Cool

What's your definition of "just around the corner"?

1.1 is an alpha. It doesn't even have the basics like textbox controls, radio buttons etc. At this week's UK Mix Scott Guthrie said the next milestone would only be about fixing the plumbing and so probably wouldn't get a public release so we're some way off 1.1 being "ready for prime time". Remember that Silverlight 1.1 support in VS 2008 ships as a "refresh" some time after VS 2008 itself goes RTM.
