If you've downloaded and played around with the Avalon CTP release would you be willing to share some of your feedback? I'd love to hear what you think of the usability of the Avalon APIs.

    The avalon newsgroup contains a continous stream of usability and scalability problems.

    Ian - It would be great to hear your feedback. What I'll use the feedback for is mainly to develop ideas for further usability studies and reviews but I will also pass on the issues to the appropriate people so that they can be addressed.

    Apologies for the delay in responding - I've just returned from vacation.

    I had some interesting problems with the binding/IValueTransformer. I have the same value bound to multiple controls and I was trying to transform a value based on which control the value was changed from. Unfortunately I couldn't find an equivilent of a "this" pointer of XAML to pass to the IValueTransformer. I also cannot bind to the properties of a binding (to pass data into IValueTransformer's extra data argument.)

    Eventually, I could not find a way to pass local data into a IValueTransformer and I ended up re-architecting the program to circumvent this limitation. It was discouraging because it seemed like it should be so easy.
