: Sorry for taking so long on this! I think a separate article covering Group Policy and management features might be an easier way to go. I say that, because I'm thinking about how a lot of the programming content would replicate stuff that is (or should be) in [[.NET Framework]]. Which bears an interesting question... should we just vastly reduce the amount of text on the .NET 3.0 stuff in this article, and make sure it's well-covered at the main article on the framework?
: Another thought, and this is a bit ambitious (even for us!), would be to integrate information about new APIs into articles about those APIs where appropriate. I was thinking about this a few weeks ago, about how it would make a lot of sense to have a bit of text in, for example, [[Desktop Window Manager]] describing the existance of a programmable API for thumbnails. Code samples would be going a bit far, but a summation with the candour of, say, [[Dashboard (software)#Creation of widgets]], would be nice. The programmability of an operating system feature seems like an important aspect to cover! <span style="color:blue;font-weight:bold;font-family:
::Splitting the management features sounds like a good idea. And yes, I totally agree APIs should be given a bit more coverage. And delegating overlapped text (like the .net part you mentioned) to their own article keeping only summary here is necessary for the sake of size. We already have articles on WCF, etc. They should be enhanced. And for the DRM features, I am first inclined to expand the Protected Media Path and Windows Rights Management Services first. if needed, thenafter, a separate DRM article may be created. Also, each subsystem (WCF/WPF/WF as also Media Framework, DirectX, DWM, Sidebar Gadgets etc) should have an API coverage in their own article. I am quite willing to give it a try. And, what about those subsystems which do not have their own article (networking, sound, print etc) - I still support an API article for their sakes. This wont repeat stuff from the dedicated articles. --<span style="background-color: #Fda;">''[[User:Soumyasch|<font color="#ff6633">soum</font>]]'' [[User talk:Soumyasch|(0_o)]]</span> 12:07, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
::: I haven't looked into the WinFX stuff much in my professional life so I don't really feel qualified to do much there. That seems more your area of expertise. So yeah, give it a shot! I'll tackle creating this new article. <span style="color:blue;font-weight:bold;font-family:
