Just reading about the efforts to produce an Eclipse-based Silverlight development platform for the Mac – quite cool.

I have to think though, perhaps the effort would have been better spent creating a port of Blend for the Mac… it seems to me that only a tiny minority of developers would opt for Eclipse over Visual Studio; whereas I’d guess nearly all designers would prefer to work natively within MacOS.

I can kind of understand why they’ve done it, but I can only hope there’s another project underway with that Blend port…
