The European Committee for Interoperable Systems has said that Microsoft's use of XAML in its Silverlight product aims to introduce content on the World Wide Web that can only be accessed from the Windows platform. Using a plugin, XAML is viewable in some non-Microsoft browsers on Windows and Mac, and Microsoft provides direct support for Novell's development of a Silverlight viewer for GNU/Linux called Moonlight. As of January 2010, Moonlight 2 is a compatible implementation of Silverlight 2.

Famous quotes containing the word criticism:
“Homoeopathy is insignificant as an art of healing, but of great value as criticism on the hygeia or medical practice of the time.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The aim of all commentary on art now should be to make works of art—and, by analogy, our own experience—more, rather than less, real to us. The function of criticism should be to show how it is what it is, even that it is what it is, rather than to show what it means.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
“Like speaks to like only; labor to labor, philosophy to philosophy, criticism to criticism, poetry to poetry. Literature speaks how much still to the past, how little to the future, how much to the East, how little to the West.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
