XAML Development Today, But Not From Microsoft

Paul Colton writes "My company, Xamlon, has just released its flagship product, also called Xamlon. It allows for XAML development on all supported Windows platform, from Win98 through Longhorn. We're also investigating Mono and Java as possible development targets. CNET recently wrote a story of our launch."

    This is a nit-pick but we should not be sloppily using the term Clone, which the biotech folks have given a precise meaning. If you have built a product to an open and published spec from scratch rather than by borrowing or reusing library or other component software, I'd say you have co-evolved software. Your implementation could wind up being very different, under the hood, from whatever MS eventualy delivers in fulfillment of its spec. A clone is a copy at the implementation level in biology, not at the feature level. We will drive the polymath /. crowd mad much more slowly if all of software's borrowings [virus, worm, infection etc] from biology map consistently onto their wetware metaphores.
