Scott Guthrie has updated the list of features they plan to support for 1.1.
"Silverlight 1.1 Update
Now that Silverlight 1.0 is out the door, my team is cranking hard on our Silverlight 1.1 release.
Silverlight 1.1 will include a cross-platform version of the .NET Framework, and will enable a rich .NET development experience in the browser. It will support a WPF programming model for UI - including support for an extensible control model, layout management, data-binding, control skinning, and a rich set of built-in controls. It will also include a subset of the full .NET Framework base class library you use today, including support for collections, generics, IO, threading, globalization, networking (including sockets, web-services and REST support), HTML DOM, XML, local storage, and LINQ.
You'll be able to use any .NET language to develop a Silverlight application (VB, C#, JavaScript, Python, Ruby, Pascal, and more). It is going to really open up a lot of new development opportunities."
None of this is really new information (he has posted it in snippets in other blogs), however it means we know where we are heading now.
