My MVVM Framework : AKA Cinch

I have just put up the 1st part in my MVVM series of articles which talks about a MVVM framework I am calling Cinch. I hope this will answer some of people short coming when working with MVVM and WPF. I have decided to dedicate an entire page here on my blog which will have all the links you should need to gain quick access to the entire series.

Book progress

I would just like to say a big thanks for all of you who supported the idea of me writing a book with some fellow geeks. Unfortunately due to the publishers short sightedness and general idiot attitude this is no longer happening. I am actually now happy about this decision, any I honestly do not know how they get so many books written. Well actually I do, most books are just MSDN regurgitated, but ours would not have been. Their loss.

On the plus side I will be continuing my work on all the subject matter from the book and will be writing code project articles and a open source MVVM framework for use with WPF. So something good has come out of it.

Here is what really happened to force our hand not to write the book

Sorry about the book, but the decision had to be made.
