I didn't go to MIX, but I did read a few blog posts of people who did. Definately need to dive deeper this weekend. Here is my quick overview of what was announced/released...
DLR
- Dynamic Language Runtime
- Lets your .net code iteract with dynamic languages like Ruby, Python, Javascript
- Lets those languages interact with your .net code! Neat!
CLR on a Mac
- A browser plug-in that will run .net 3.x apps
- OSX Only
- Intel based Macs only?
- Safari, Firefox, IE
- Subset of the BCL
- Rewritten CLR
Silverlight
- Lots of classes to make working with media easier.
- 720p
