A more different story is that the new Moonlight 2 version is avaible to download and install on linux, which I obviously did and I can say, it works fine so hats off for Novell.

Hotspot is our new little winner project, for BEST Timisoara Microsoft Competition (17-26 November 2009).

It is a Windows Azure and Silverlight project designed and developed for this competition.

Currenty at version 1.1, you can find it on Codeplex at hotspot.codeplex.com  and online "on the cloud" at hotspot.cloudapp.net. 

The competition was judged by: 

• George Pristavu, Microsoft Romania
• Mihai Tataran, Microsoft MVP
• Alin Taranu, Microsoft Timisoara

We were very glad to participate, it was a real challenge (PDC was side by side), and promise to continue working on it, at least to version 2.0.

Have a nice day.
