Sorry, I love *nix, but linux doesn't do much for me on x86, especially when x86/windows offers 100% compatibility and killer dev tools. Frankly, there is no real reason to host asp.net apps under apache, when my XP box does better after locking it down. No religion here folks, just reality. Hi Steve, I just wanted to mention that saving many thousands of dollars is a "real reason" for many of us. No religion. Just reality.

RE: [Mono-list] Java, Mono, or C++.. by HP
I just want to chime in quickly here. There is no technology in the world today that is "unemcumbered by possible legal tangles." If I recall correctly, someone recently even made a patent claim on the technology in jpeg images. As I see it, at least we have the ECMA standards body and public statements from Microsoft to indicate that other implementations of the standardized .net runtime and class libraries are allowed and desired (they even mention mono specifically). You can search MSDN for these statements. Now.. as for ASP.Net and WinForms... There are no guarantees. I have been following Mono since it began because I know how productive this environment can be. It is of lesser concern to me that it is compatible with windows apps written against Microsoft's runtime. There are more people than you would expect out there like me who 1) are big fans of .net and 2) are big fans of linux. I think that with some level of advocacy (which I would expect to begin post 1.0) you will see a huge influx of volunteers working on projects on linux...

I don't want EITHER Java nor Mono to form the basis of Gnome. Just my personal opinion and I'm a Mono fan as well.

RE: [Mono-list] Winforms progress and goals.
I am guessing that if you get to the point that you can run WebMatrix, you will either be pretty close, or already able to run SharpDevelop.

I know it requires a lot of work so sorry for my suggestion with no real help, but it would be nice to also run SharpDevelop ;-) -- [aka Marble] Registered LiNUX user #140941 <> http://counter.li.org/ Socio #3274 de HispaLinux <> http://www.hispalinux.es Miembro de GPL URV <> http://www.gplurv.org GnuPG key: 0x0ED2CF9D <> pgp.escomposlinux.org ___ Mono-list maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
