DRK6 and No Central Examples

I was very disappointed when I didn’t find any Central samples after downloading the latest DRK. I mean, where else can sample Central applications have that kind of exposure? Well, actually they would reach a broader audience if offered for free, and not only to DevNet subscribers. And you know what, that’s exactly what is going to happen.

Not so long ago, a discussion on whether the DRK6 should include Central material started over at Josh Dura’s blog after he asked for input on sample content he was being asked to provide. A few people, including myself, commented that if something can help central gain momentum would be including samples central applications in the next DRK.

Today, DRK6 was released and not central samples where to be found. aSH happened to post his concerns about the subject earlier today, and after reading his posting I found a comment by Mike Chambers, saying that the reason for not including Central material in the latest DRK is because sample Central applications will be available for free at the DevNet site. Although he didn’t disclose any dates, it is a good thing they’re doing here.
