Second round of Q1 2009 service packs now available

While I'm busy preparing for tomorrow's skinning webinar (it's going to be fun- don't miss it), the product teams are busy delivering the last wave of fresh bits to you before the big Q2 2009 release arrives. Earlier today, Telerik shipped the Q2 2009 Service Pack 2s for the RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX and the RadControls for XAML (Silverlight/WPF). Each of these SPs rolls-up a lot of hotfixes (as you would expect), but they also go a step further and deliver some pretty compelling "enhancements:" RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX (2009.1.527)

• Official support for Chrome v2
• Early support for VS 2010 Beta 1
• New Skin! Simple (CSS "mostly")
• Improved Visual Studio Extensions
• New support for rendering RadControls in MVC/client-side scenarios

RadControls for XAML (Silverlight/WPF) (2009.1.526)

• Localization support added for many controls
• Many new properties and events added to RadGridView
• Bug fixes accross the suite

You can download the new bits now in your Client.net accounts on Telerik.com and enjoy the improvements right away. Stay tuned for more details about some of the features in SP2 (and some yet to be seen features coming in Q2) in the coming days. 'Til then, enjoy SP2!
