In addition to the Silverlight download, Microsoft announced support for dynamic languages including Python and Ruby, and the next edition of Visual Studio, code-named "Orcas," for building Silverlight applications. Microsoft's Ozzie played up the importance of having a development platform that would span the web, the PC desktop and mobile devices.
