Microsoft Released Silverlight 5.1, Ever So Quietly

Starting with Microsoft’s typical Patch Tuesday updates released on May 8^th included the new Silverlight 5.1, or is it 5.2. We really don’t know, but so far the 5.2 version that is available for download, appears to be a simple typo. And for all those fans of the Silverlight plug-in for your browsers, web apps, mobile devices and desktop platform, you probably shouldn’t get your hopes up as this being a clue that Microsoft will continue to put any amount of development into this platform. This is a simple patch and update that was already on the roadmap. You can read the full story of this release here.
