That is a very interesting statement about MVVM. Not meaning it's unusual, because I have heard variations many times from others as well about architectures. Too much room between me and my code. I'm just surprised to hear it from you.

>No not using Prism, although I'm getting ready to start work on a WPF app and I might check it out. I think most of the MVVM schemes are way too complex and they don't really make things easier...

>NuGet - yup just published a bunch of stuff on NuGet (West Wind Web Toolkit stuff which includes all the general purpose utility tools too as a separate NuGet package).

>NuGet is one of the nicer things Microsoft has done in a while... Really sweet to be able to just dump components into a project off the Web...
