I sit down with Dan Ayoub who is an executive producer at 343 Industries.  343 Industries just announced that the Halo Waypoint app will ship with Windows Phone 7.  It is a Silverlight application and Dan talks about the Dev cycle, features and what we can expect.

    This Week on Channel 9, Dan and Brian get together to discuss the week’s top developer news, including:

    Picks of the week!

    • Brian’s pick: Brian Harry goes through a slew of useful updates and bug fixes coming for TFS 2010
    • Dan’s pick: Coding4Fun – Jeremiah Morrill – Building the Laser Graffiti System shown at PDC


    A preview version of the new Channel 9 is now available at http://preview.channel9.msdn.com. Please file any bugs or suggestions on Connect.  

    Mike Sampson (aka Sampy) has done some stellar work with the backend architecture and design of the next version of Channel 9, code named “Rev9,” and this fifth version includes a revamped UI and restructured backend.

    In this conversation (it’s a long and deep one, so set aside some time—it’s well worth it), Sampy takes us through how and why he designed the new Channel 9 architecture. “Rev9″ appears to be a very scalable and modern system built on tried and true technologies and architectural patterns such as MVC 2.0, Unity (from P&P), NHibernate, Fluent NHibernate, Memcached, Enyim Managed Memcached driver, Azure – Fabric, Storage, Diagnostics, SQL Azure, xUnit (testing only), Live ID, Spark View Engine, Akismet (spam filtering service), AntiXSS, Tinymce, jQuery, and Silverlight.

    Sampy’s great work is simply astounding. I left his office feeling more confident than ever that Channel 9 will scale to the future and the experience of performance and reliability will be at an all time high. Thank you, Sampy, Duncan, Cara, Geoff, Clint, and Dan. The revolution is now televised and in full swing.

    On a very special episode of This Week on Channel 9, Dan is joined by Duncan Mackenzie to do a live demo of the new Channel 9 Web site (codenamed: Revolution 9).

    We’ve also published a screenshot tour of Revolution 9 here.

    You’ll see demos of:

    • The new Home page
    • The new Shows/Series page
    • Improved discoverability via the Browse feature
    • Improvements to the default Channel 9 player
    • Improvements to the Coffeehouse
    • The new profile page

    Picks of the week!

    • Duncan’s favorite feature: The new show/series page
    • Dan’s favorite feature: The ability to add URL based timecodes. This timecode: “#time=15m22s” would jump to start the video 15 minutes and 22 seconds from the beginning
