I'd stay away from .NET and Mono. The Mono package will never be as compatible as necessary and may have legal challenges from MS. Java is a much better cross-platform option. It is truly portable, fast (now), and has very nice development tools (Eclipse).

I had done a similar search 6 months ago and there were hardly any project at all.... http://sf.net BTW if you happen to digest all these projects and evaluate pls. let the group know about the outcome...At least I am interested with finding a reliable Open Source messaging component for HL7 v2.3 to be used in a development environment .NET or VB6 with ADO in my own OS Pathology project. BTW#2: I am considering to port my Win32 application to linux or better crossplatform...SO far I have identified Mono - a free and Open Source .NET development environment...ANd for the last 2 days (and nites!) I am trying to install and evaluate on my fresh Fedora Core 4 desktop system...I had done linux system admin. back at 1998 and I must admit that many waters have passed under the bridge...It is really rock-solid platform but not as easily understood as M$ Windoz platforms.. Any suggestions for me?? If you are interested with Mono Project: http://www.go-mono.com Best regards, koray On Fri, 2006-01-13 at 20:57 -0800, Will Ross wrote: > Koray, > > To be more precise, the open source clinical messaging solution I am > looking for is either already feature complete or can become feature > complete with a small amount of development when compared to > proprietary products from Axolotl, Kryptiq, Optio, SureScripts, > Quovadx, eMediary, InteGreat, and similar companies. > > More details will appear soon on the following web page: > > http://mendocinohre.org/mern.html > > With best regards, > > [wr] SPONSORED LINKS Software distribution Salon software Medical software Software association Software jewelry Software deployment YAHOO!
