We are looking at developing in Windows and taking
it toUnix with Mono. We have heard rumors that ADO.Net and windows forms
are patented by MS and will not be avialable in Mono.
First, is this true and second is there a different
solution?
Thanks

Best I can tell, Windows Forms are done up in GTK# under Mono. ADO.Net
is widely supported, and most major database systems have providers
written (ByteFX for MySQL, etc). Works just fine, and the legal issue,
AFAIK, is, according to Miguel, far overblown. There are several recent
threads on that
Windows.Forms uses Winelib, GTK# is a seperate package. Afaik, GTK#
is more reliable than Windows.Forms right now.
