Does anyone know how to create a WPF app with the Ribbon control similar to WinForm MDI?
Side note:
I would caution against using this type of paradigm (two layers of tabs in your application). We did it and the user experience feedback wasn't very good. Our UI designers also weren't big on having tabs in the menu and tabs in the content area. While this was specific to our application implementation, if you look at Word and IExplore, each has one or the other, not both. But you never know, maybe next gen UI will have the combo!
Off my soapbox.

I downloaded this library and it seems to work quite well. Plus it is open source! So you can change the images, etc.

I put this in my XamRibbonWindow and was able to successfully open different tabs based off of events from the Ribbon. (Not too hard)
Hi -
Not sure what type of guidance you're looking for here - as you probably know WPF does not support the concept of MDI.
