Much ado about nothing: C# use in open source
,----[ Quote ]
| Its use stands at - hold your breath - 1.24 percent, just one-hundredths of a
| percent more than assembly language.
|
| Mono, for the uninitiated, is an attempt by Miguel de Icaza, the co-founder
| of the GNOME desktop project and currently vice-president of Novell, to
| replicate parts of Microsoft's .NET development environment as an open source
| project.
|
| Novell is the same company that signed a patent indemnification deal with
| Microsoft in November 2006, which gave the latter opportunities to spread FUD
| about Linux. The charges which were levelled have remained just that -
| unproven charges.

Banshee UI to be in Moonlight
,----[ Quote ]
| Yes. Thatâs right. According to the GCDS 2009 presentation notes on the
| Banshee site, we learn lots of nice stuff about Banshee:
|
| âItâs not just an app, itâs a platformâ.
|
| Â Â * Long term goal is to write the UI in Moonlight
| Â Â Â Â Â o Declarative UI, canvas, scene graph, and toolkit
| Â Â Â Â Â o Moonlight is an Open Source implementation of Microsoftâs
| Â Â Â Â Â Silverlight technology â and it is awesome
|
| âBanshee is going to do photosâ
|
| âWe are re-basing the F-Spot core on top of Bansheeâ
|
| And it ends with GNOME, Mono and Banshee logos.
|
| Moonlight is of course, absolutely toxic unless you get it directly from
| Novell, as the so-called âcovenantâ specifically prohibits non-Novell
| distributions from distributing Moonlight
