As Simon mentioned in his last post he felt that it was time to get started on learning WPF, I have decided to join him on the quest. So as of today I will be assisting him in developing the Point Case Estimation application as an XBAP.

Having used XAML in my last project I am sure that seeing the following will not freak me out too much

   1: <Path x:Name="DiamondShape"

   2:       Data="F1 M 256,32L 352,32L 416,192L 352,352L 256,352L 192,192L 256,32 Z "

   3:       Opacity="0.9"  Stretch="Fill"

   4:       Stroke="#FF2A8117"

   5:       Fill="White" >

   6: </Path>

Can anyone actually tell me what “F1 M 256,32L 352,32L 416,192L 352,352L 256,352L 192,192L 256,32 Z “ actually means without a some sort of reference guide? Maybe Chris Sells might be able to help me much like he did with Scott Hanselman

I guess that is the ultimate challenge.

Estimating time for a work item is at times a fine art, more often than not its based on a combination of Prior Experience and gut feel.

Simon is soon going to be setting free our Point Case Estimation that we have used extremely successfully for over 18 months.

When its available I would suggest that you give it a try. In the mean time Dilbert will supply some laughs
