At a Silverlight event today, Microsoft gave a first look at the next version of the company's development platform. Silverlight 5 will be a more complete, more capable development platform, and it should be a faster one, too, with hardware acceleration of various features. What the announcement didn't do is clarify Microsoft's future development direction any better.
