This is pretty exciting stuff. IIRC ibdknox used to work on Visual Studio when he was at Microsoft.

  I did indeed. I used to be the Program Manager for C# and VB in the IDE. :) A number of the ideas presented here started brewing during my time there, but it took me a bit to figure out what the overall abstraction should be. I really love the drafting table parallel - it's especially interesting when you start thinking about what we can do with touch...

    This is great, I would love to try something like it. Making each code artifact living outside of the file paradigm should enable new way to develop, but in the past what I saw trying failed (at least for me). The drafting table look like the abstraction that can make this work. The interactivity would be key too. I can't help but think of a drafting pad and drafting notebook to allow us to work on our system everywhere...

    Even if it proves unweildy once a project grows too large, as a learning and prototyping tool this looks fantastic. Thank you!

    Some friendly advice - never state in writing that some ideas started brewing when you were with your previous employer.
