Because I think Silverlight is SO MUCH better than trying to do stuff with HTML 5 and javascript, I was feeling good when Microsoft said they were supporting it until 2021. But then it wasn't on Windows RT. Ok, that is a small and dying platform.
But now with Spartan, how will my customers run my application?
And now Chrome is killing off npapi. How will my customers who use Chrome run my application?
Silverlight is "supported", but how? How can we keep running our applications till 2021? Did they mean we support it on XP until 2021? Did they mean we support as long as you don't upgrade your computer that contains a new OS?
