Convert Silverlight App to WPF

I need to convert a Silverlight App to WPF (to finally run it on Microsoft Surface 1.0).

I didn't write the original solution and it is quite big. I've never worked with Silverlight and I'm just a little bit familiar with WPF.

Can you offer some advice on completing this project?

Here's my current plan (high level view):

Have I missed something big? Is something wrong? Incomplete?

I'm open to all your suggestions and advice!

Any development tips ?

"User Control in Silverlight = WPF User Control Library ?" Not exactly. which version of silverlight do you use? Most difficult issue I have faced while porting WPF to Silverlight was with converters. Silverlight 4.0 or lower doesn't support Ancestor RelativeSource Binding. But supported in Silverlight 5!

Hope this link will help you. WPF and Silverlight 2 Compatibility
