If any of you are interested in a Drag and Drop library for Silverlight 1.0 RC, please visit Roberto's blog to read his article Silverlight Drag and Drop Javascript Class - RC. For all the spanish speaking people out there, he will translate the article into Spanish in the near future.

Happy Programming!
