Get ready for Acropolis!

I’ve been concerned that CAB since its 1.0 release seemed to be a dead project, although there certainly was a lot to do. P&P team focused on other things like software factories, leaving CAB as it was. I guess we now have the answer why. Microsoft announced (and released 1st CTP of) project Acropolis. It looks like CAB for WPF on steroids, and may be the-hot-thing in desktop development. There’s a crappy quality screencast up on this site. Basically project is announced but still I couldn’t find many information about it. Is it going to be integrated with Orcas, or a separate download, when it will be released, what are it’s capabilities…

I guess I’ll download Orcas beta once again to play with it.
