[Mono-list] .NET API documentation

2014-05-28 Thread Edward Ned Harvey (mono)
This deserves to be cross-posted.  I had heard many people express concern 
about mono and the .NET API, in the wake of oracle v google, and especially in 
the recent-ish reversal of decision, which now rules an API to be 
copyrightable.  

Congratulations to Mono, and the people named by Miguel below, and thank you 
Microsoft.   :-)  And congratulations to Oracle, for continuing to destroy java 
like a bunch of idiots.
