To create our own image trees compatible with the MultiScaleImage control (without using Composer), we seem to need the format of the info.bin file. Is the format of this file documented and publicly available?

We're also looking into this.
Looking at it in a hex editor, it looks like the .bin contains the same information as the xml file generated by Composer. Making the jpeg slices shouldn't be too terrible in-house. I guess we should just wait and see if they make an SDK or more documentation available!

In the beta 1 timeframe we didn't support the XML format, but we are planning to add support for the XML file after this beta, and use the XML file format exclusively - at which point it will be much easier for you to create tiles compatible with Deep Zoom. -lutz.

XML support would be great. I jumped the gun and decoded the items.bin and layout.bin files so that I could start playing around with them right now!
The details can be found in my blog if anyone is interested: http://projectsilverlight.blogspot.com
