Karsten Jzkdliguloiuski has updated his Avalon 3D Donut to be more delicious and interactive and to fly! Enjoy.

Here. In the interview, Don answers questions like "How did you get started in computer technologies" and "What's your favorite vegetable," but he also answers much more interesting questions like “I’m perfectly happy using ASMX for Web services - why should I care about Indigo?” and “So, how will Indigo be better than WSE 2.0?”

Mike Weinhardt lists his favorite new features in Windows Forms 2.0, not only bringing my “butt” into it, but making it sound like a good thing. : )

Apparently Eric Gunnerson, confident that C# is now perfect (and who can blame him?) has decided to work on the Longhorn Movie Maker team (and who can blame him?).

I find these strangely compelling, especially this one:

Languages Zen Koan:
“One day Fred was working with .NET. He overheard a programmer say to his superior, “Give me the best programming language you have.” “Every language in .NET is the best,” replied the butcher. “You can not find any language in .NET that is not the best.” At these words, Fred was enlightened.”

Daniel Lehenbauer, SDE on the Avalon team, posts another article on Avalon 3D with fabulous figures. As a guy that relies on screen shots and the kindness of his friends for such luscious figures, I've very jealous. Check it out.

Only4Gurus.com has posted a presentation by Jeffrey P. Snover, a Monad Architect, entitled "Monad Shell — Task-Oriented Automation Framework," in which he covers the Monad mission, the overall architecture and key developer and admin concepts. I'm a huge Monad fan and so should you be.

Joe Beda, development lead on the Avalon team, talks about rich vs. reach and where Avalon fits into this picture.
