Wow! First Stephen Elop, and now the amazing Mike Downey!!!  (Two visionaries now at Microsoft who certainly had parts in making Macromedia great!)

Microsoft is an amazing company.  And wise in bringing in the best world class talent that they can attract. And you sir certainly are WORLD CLASS TALENT! 

I was shocked when you left Adobe. I am very excited to see that you are still in an evangelist role in our community which is bringing lightweight interactive experiences to the world.

I learned a lot from you on the Flash side.  I am glad to know that I now have a go-to-guy on the Silverlight side.

Best of luck to you in your continuing to carry on in what you do so well.

Warmest regards,
