Greetings folks, A developer group looking for a platform to deploy theirs applications wants: - Secure platform stable platform and dinamic(i think mono it is enough, but it has to be proven, we can't do anything only the time can) - Modern abstract POO language (Mono supports the most successful languages) - Tons of Documentation, clear and proffesional (MS has got it, indirectly Mono has got it) - Compatible extendible platforms and Cooperable(Web Services) with others platforms. - IMHO The best IDE(perhaps it makes the difference between the current leaders platforms) Nowadays is the most attractive feature for developing an application.
· IDE (BrainStorm) - quick and effective Intelli-Sense with quick documentation that doesn't leave the screen. - Debugger fully integrated with the IDE, better debugger tools,for example in VS you can see values of basics types and explore the state of an object putting the mouse over the reference in the code.(that's incredibly useful) - Be able to develop asp.net with automatic cooperation with either XSP or ModMono, and a second step would be develop them with visual tools. - WebService use and deployment facilities. - Tools or plugins for integration of Nunit, Ajax, ifolder, monoUML...and Samples how to develop theese plugins. if mono now supports winforms why dont try use sharpdevelop on linux (i know that monodevelop is the linux the port of sharpdevelop but they are not the same) Why do the things twice. · Documentation(BrainStorm) Concentrate the effort in better documentation about those things exclusive in mono such as: - Runtime source code - Mono APIS - Embedding mono,mkbundle adventages - Samples developing plugins for the IDE This is my humble point of view.
