I've been looking at different ways of using XAML in Silverlight and I finally got around to wanting to have that cool animated Silverlight Logo (note it won't show up correctly until they update their code from Beta to RC if you have updated to the RC).

I recently was talking with a prominent developer in the Microsoft community as they were creating a new version of their website. They had used a code generator to create most of the code on the new site which I thought was cool, but I immediately wanted to know how much functionality was included. As I talk with other MVP's as well as Regional Directors, it seems that I am in the distinct minority.  wildermuth.com is written almsot completely as custom ASP.NET code. Sure I used some components and started with someone else's HTML template, but most of the code is still C# to do much of the heavy lifting. Most of the people I talk with use community use pre-packaged systems to host their sites (including Community Server, DASBlog, etc.).

I think I gave too short notice and only received a single RSVP so I've decided to cancel the geek dinner.  I'll reschedule it for next month.
