How to host a Silverlight app in a Sharepoint 2007 Web Part

There has been a flurry of updates released to Microsoft's Silverlight over the past couple of months (Silverlight 2 beta 2 runtime + dev tools, RC0 + dev tools which broke beta 2 apps), and recently Microsoft has released the RTM.

I have been trying (unsuccessfully) to integrate Sharepoint 2007 and Silverlight. Many of the sharepoint/silverlight blogs i have read are outdated, meaning that they target SL Beta 2.

So, my question is...

What steps are necessary in order to host a Silverlight 2.0 (RTM) application, in a web part, on Sharepoint Server 2007 ?
