How do I download the videos?
- To download, right click the file type you would like and pick “Save target as…” or “Save link as…”
Why should I download videos from Channel9?
- It's an easy way to save the videos you like locally.
- You can save the videos in order to watch them offline.
- If all you want is to hear the audio, you can download the MP3!
Which version should I choose?
- If you want to view the video on your PC, Xbox or Media Center, download the High Quality WMV file (this is the highest quality version we have available).
- If you'd like a lower bitrate version, to reduce the download time or cost, then choose the Medium Quality WMV file.
- If you have a Zune, WP7, iPhone, iPad, or iPod device, choose the low or medium MP4 file.
- If you just want to hear the audio of the video, choose the MP3 file.
Right click “Save as…”
- High Quality WMV (PC, Xbox, MCE)
- MP3 (Audio only)
- MP4 (iPod, Zune HD)
- Mid Quality WMV (Lo-band, Mobile)
- WMV (WMV Video)
Herman Venter announces the Common Compiler Infrastructure (CCI) as an
open source project
on codeplex! CCI is a set of tools and components that are useful to build compilers: readers and writers for MSIL and symbol files, and more.
You’ve may have heard and probably used different incarnations of CCI in the past: the FxCop introspection engine,
ILMerge,
Spec# or Code
Contracts are using CCI in many ways. Now, you can use it too: just sync the sources, build it, tweak it, etc… It’s all there on
codeplex at
Enjoy!
ps: Sorry for the low quality of the sound, my new microphone is on it's way...

What's the difference between CCI and Phoenix SDK ? (It was also a compiler/runtime tool optimizer)
I thought he was going to show all the herms he invented.
Indeed. We have some great content from Lang .NET that will air in a few weeks.
C
Phoenix and CCI certainly have areas of overlap and it is not always easy to decide when to use which.
I view Phoenix as a large and somewhat complicated tool kit that is primarily concerned with compiling unmanaged C/C++ to optimal machine code. Everything else is secondary and this has an impact on the usability of Phoenix for compiler front-end scenarios and simple MSIL production and consumption.
Use Phoenix when you are a Rocket Scientist and need to leverage the extensive support for control flow graphs, SSA and so on.
