+1 on all for me (except the Ribbon, I shouldn't vote on my own code) I can see the issues and it's part of why I never submitted it to Nebula because I figured it would never pass IP. If it does, great! If not, I guess it will keep on living on on Hexapixel but I'll have to set up a public source control repo for it, and it's a bit hard to track bugs of course. I appreciate Microsoft doing what they did instead of actively hunting down any look-alike widgets, but at the same time it's a bit of a shame.
In any case, all the other widgets look really fantastic, I look forward to using most of them =) Emil On Wed, Mar 4, 2009 at 7:59 PM, Chris Gross <[email protected]> wrote: > +1 on each of them. > The Ribbon is very cool but I'm skeptical that we'll be able to pull it > into Nebula.
