'Peer-to-Peer with VB.NET'

Matthew MacDonald's new book 'Peer-to-Peer with VB .NET'  was at the local Borders Books. Chapter 12 is devoted to Messenger and Groove development. I think I am going to get this one albeit I wish it had it in C# code though.

RTC Client API v1.2 SDK

The RTC Client API v1.2 SDK was released recently - I was wondering if anyone has 'managed' to wrap it for .NET development. There is a mention of creating the interop assembly albeit the samples are for VC++ and VB6 and only one for C#. The RTC (Real Time Comm) is now officially called the Microsoft Office Live Communications Server 2003 and it's something to look forward to.

WIRED's XP at H-P

The current issue of WIRED has an illustrative article on XP at H-P. That's Extreme Programming (XP). I was wondering if XP is more prevalent in non-Windows platform or not. Are they any studies that show the correlation between XP and the various development platforms? Inquiring minds want to know.

Does C# measure up?
Very interesting article in the Windows Developer magazine. A cursory look shows it certainly measures upto Java ... ;-)
