Overview (From MSDN Site)
This release is a managed implementation of the Ribbon for WPF. The Ribbon is a command bar that organizes the features of an application into a series of tabs at the top of the application window, is designed to help you quickly find the commands that you need to complete a task. The Ribbon user interface (UI) increases discoverability of features and functions, enables quicker learning of the application, and helps users feel more in control of their experience with the application. The Ribbon replaces the traditional menu bar and toolbars.
Additional Information (From MSDN Site)
Note: There are a large number of design revisions in this release since the CTP version. This is mainly to facilitate MVVM-centric applications. r />
