The PDC samples I used are not on the VPC (I had hacked them together on my box directly). Note that our Beta1 is coming out relatively soon, so you may want to wait for that (lots and lots of bug fixed and feature polish involved :)) SN, the WF templates should be available on both the PDC 2008 VM and the ‘Oslo VM’ (the Oslo VM does have slightly more recent bits).

But i can't find the WF 4.0 Items which you are using for samples during your presentation (WF 4.0: A First Look). Could you tell me where I can find WF 4.0 project templates or the WF 4.0 toolbox items? Kind regards SN Hello,

i am testing the PDC2008 VM including VS2010 and .NET 4.0.
But i can’t find the WF 4.0 Items which you are using for samples during your presentation
(WF 4.0: A First Look). Could you tell me where I can find WF 4.0 project templates or the
WF 4.0 toolbox items?

Kind regards
SN

Back then, I was a QA intern in MacBU for PowerPoint. It was HR's policy at the time, if one wanted to change job functions, to meet with someone in your desired role to discuss the day to day responsibilities of the role. Though I don't expect you to necessarily remember the probably 50 words we exchanged, I met with you about the developer role. What you *may* remember, if you happened to be at the all-hands meeting in question, was my 'exit presentation' for the end of my internship that summer which consisted of a anecdotal PowerPoint with screencaps from the then-contemporary movie The Matrix. In any case, I did two subsequent internships thereafter in Redmond (rather than CA) as a developer in Visual Studio and then took a full time position therein for two more years (aliases t-brianb and BrianBen, #125714) until the gloom of Seattle wore on me and I decided to move back to Chicago where I am still developing compiler related tools with Microsoft technologies. In any case, I found your 'Matrix' reference in the session today to be an extremely bizarre coincidence but didn't feel like competing with the horde to speak with you afterwards so I thought I'd relate this history here and share that old presentation should you be interested. I have it up on my otherwise largely defunct site at: 'www.bleedink.com/docs/Matrix.ppt'. You seem to be moving up in the world (Indigo, WF); gratz! I too am doing well, and though I benefit from my MS history, I felt that they did little besides exploit my talents when I worked there directly (which they seem to acknowledge only in hindsight); the exception being the MacBU folks. I just thought you should know that our extremely brief interaction was one of several cornerstones in my very successful career. Thank you!
