WPF on IRC
Being a long-time member of the ##wpf channel over on the Freenode IRC network, I thought I would bring it to the attention of any readers who are interested in this wonderful technology. Since the post is really only of interest to developers who already know WPF (or are at least keen to learn it), I shall not say anything about the technology except that it is a superb (and very modern) user interface/presentation framework for Windows applications – I strongly recommend it to anyone who develops complex (or even simple) user interfaces as a replacement for whatever library/toolkit they are already using.
The channel is currently the most popular WPF-related channel on any IRC network (of which I know), and sees regular activity, though not quite as much as we hope, hence this post! While the channel averages around 20-30 users at any time, it has not quite seen the growth it deserves as WPF gains more and more popularity. Hence, I urge anyone interested in the subject to at least pop in and check out the channel, perhaps idle around for a while. We’re a friendly lot, I promise, and will be glad to help out any newcomers!
