RE: [Mono-list] Q: how's using Mono in the corporate/enterprise world?

 I'd like to collect case studies, or simple references of
 organizations, corporations, software houses, financial institution, no
 profit orgs, anyone...using Mono for:

Here at Brigham Young University of Provo, Utah, we are preparing to use
Mono, especially mod_mono, to fill a gap that IIS cannot fill with our web
applications.  Specifically, Windows is very slow in accessing Novell shares
compared to Linux.  Also, IIS cannot host ASP.NET apps when their files are
stored on Novell shares.  Mono has no problem with Novell shares, which
makes it the ideal solution.  

We will be using Mono to host dozens of web apps, most of them taking
advantage of some advanced features in mod_mono and the System.Web
namespace.  

I speak not for all of BYU, but for one college within it, called Family
Home and Social Sciences.

We (an ISP in Toronto) have used it for two sizable projects to date,
1) the backend of a Macromedia flash music player service for the music 
festival  NXNE  (a sister fest to SXSW),
   which had ~400 bands playing in Toronto just this last week. And 
this music model will be used for other venues/showcases.
2) the Canadian Wide Science Fair - A site that organizes all the 
students across Canada that do a Science Fair (in the finals).
  this involved a conversion of MS-SQL to Postgres, the only hitch 
was Postgres doesn't appear to support multiple DataSet return (from 
function/SP),
  and thus we devised a procedure to kinda emulate this.

in fact, my job (in adminsitrative enterprise) is to study mono's potential too. in 
france, there politics events which push free logs up (one of the arguments is the 
prize). Im enjoying testing mono because free logs are not so democratic in enterprise 
environnmement... and so  , to have salary im obliged to use m$ technologies ... that 
there which mono come, if mono is able to o the same as m$ .Net, in my opinion many 
enterprises will improve free logs!
My jo consisted in study the existant and try it on mono, testing the community 
feedback and the migraztion's difficulty. The result is positive, because for my perfs 
results, .Net is behind mono! (is there something wrong, my results are too good !) 
These perfs tests consisted on running apllication on windows and copy these 
application on linux and then run them!
so the good point, exploitation easy (nearly just to copy the exe and config file), 
learning easy, System, System.Data ok, webservices ok, asp.Net ok (there re too many 
goo points!)...

i ve two bad points . One is going to be fix: Winform
the worrying other : COM+ ... (especially transactions)
