Jumpin' heck, I must have missed that news. That's really weird,
surprising, irritating and it's bad for business.

I actually wanted to see my SL5 app running in Win8 metro to find out if it
would inherit the flat appearance, but of course I never reached that point.

The SL5 app does not have any style overrides and some customers complained
that it had the old Win7 look and wasn't sexy enough. Apparently they want
the app to have the flat pastel borderless look now popular in Metro and
phones. So now I've got to figure out how to give them an option for the
default or flattened appearance.

I've not needed to "skin" an SL5 app before, so I'd be keen to hear from
anyone who has advice on how to switch skins with minimum suffering. I'll
read some books and articles in the meantime.
