My friend Yasser has published a new article about developing Indigo applications with the PDC build in Visual Studio .NET Whidbey. Actually it is part of the new 'Indigo Lingo' series. Check it out on MSDN:

In the first installment of the Indigo Lingo column, Yasser Shohoud explores Visual Studio .NET project templates for creating Indigo applications. (11 printed pages)

This year's Professional Developers Conference (PDC) attendees received a technology preview of the upcoming Windows® release code-named Longhorn that contains a new communications subsystem code-named Indigo. They also received a preview of the Longhorn SDK that contains several Indigo development tools and over 40 Indigo code samples, as well as Visual Studio .NET® Indigo project templates.

In this article I explain how to create and consume services using the PDC release of Longhorn, Visual Studio® .NET code-named Whidbey, and the various Visual Studio .NET project templates present in the Longhorn SDK. The goal is to get you started with a general understanding of what's in the bits and how you can use the templates.
