A colleague, Joe Marini, posted a purely declarative app that defines the visual presentation of an Amazon webservice's data. It was hand-coded in Notepad (i watched him write it :-) and compiles for free in the latest release of Longhorn. Looks simple, but exposes some deep UI issues solved by the Avalon team.

Dear Samuel,
My name is Mia and I am the editor of Tryst. I fell in love your presentation and once you have
a look at my site I think you'll know why. My site is Tryst3.com and I publish poetry, fiction, photography, art, music...anything related to
poetry.
I am interested in featuring your presentation and was wondering if you'd send the entire file with the fonts and I will do my end to set up your beautiful presentation. If this is agreeable to you, would you send along a bio, an artist's statement - something to the effect what you do, what your interests are and what inspired you to make Expression by Proxy. Thank you for your time.
Best,
Mia:Tryst Editor

Sam, I forgot to leave you my email address, I think:

I tried to email you as well, but you seem to be having email issues. I wanted to get back in touch (remember me from the MUD days?)
Anyhow, drop me an email -- let's reconnect.

Interesting app!
First time I have really taken a look at XAML, it looks really cool and easy to follow even if you've never seen XAML before.
I put together an equivalent using Flash MX2004 and our own XPComponents in 78 lines of code.
