OpenSource and Freedom
Why people think that OpenSource gives us a freedom? OpenSource restricts us to use OpenSource only :). I love QualitySoftware. I look on quality only when I choose software for my computers. I'm absolutely free because I can use commercial software, I can use freeware software and I can use OpenSource. I do not restrict myself by one license only. I recommend you to look on quality only. Choose the best products on the market! You have to disregard for a kind of software license. You may be free if you want, just use what you want.
Some time ago a critical update got appeared. What was corrected? There was no explanation. Do developers have to explain what they correct in sources? I think - no! They are free people too and could do what they want. There are source codes and if you wanted to know about changes you could analyze codes.
Developers have to respond to their code and their work. They have to patch code and inform users about changes especially about critical updates. But developers do not have to explain anything else.

LINQ and new Visual Studio 2008 features
There are many new features in Visual Studio 2008 I liked. One of them is .NET Framework 3.5. In this article I will describe features I am attracted most of all.
First of all I want to thanks C# developers for var operator. You can declare implicit type variables. It's incredible! It's a bad programming! No. It is a good feature. .NET Framework determines a variable type itself in time of declaration.
A next one new feature of Visual Studio - LINQ. What is it? It is a new extension to the .NET Framework that encompasses language-integrated database operations like queries, sets and operations. The LINQ extends C# native language with new capabilities for queries. The LINQ can work with not only databases but XML and user defined structures. You can write queries to your data collection!

How to get a files list from a folder?
It is an excellent question. I recommend using system functions. It is a slightly difficult because you have to declare interfaces and Windows Shell structures, but result will be very powerful. There are a lot of functions and structures. I'll help you to declare and to use all needed objects.
Create a new project and place a ListView component on the form. We will load files list from the desktop and place their names in the ListView. First of all we have to describe two interfaces: IShellFolder and IEnumIDList. Create a new Interface file for IShellFolder. To do it, use the right click on the project name in the Solution Explorer window. Select the New Item from the Add menu. The Add New item dialog will be displayed
The full version you can read on Hackish Code. Read the article: How to get a files list from a folder?
