Is there a way to create an desktop application with that office2007 toolbar for free?

Question

I found several controlsets for that nice looking ribbons (DotNetBar, DivElements, ...), but all require a license for at least 100 USD. Is there a free controlset that looks quite as nice as the commericial ones?

Answer 1

You can download the Microsoft WPF Ribbon Control through the Office Developer UI Licence.

It was meant to be released last week.

I'll see if i can dig out a download link.
