In addition, Microsoft is making these technologies available on Windows XP and Windows Server 2003. The Indigo and Avalon Community Technology Preview (CTP) enables developers to experiment with early builds of these technologies, get acquainted with the development experience, and provide Microsoft with feedback.

Indigo is the codename for Microsoft's unified programming model for building connected systems. Avalon is the code name for Microsoft's unified presentation subsystem for Windows.
