Notice how all the Microsoft Muchkins (anti-Linux crowd) are defending Microsoft
MVP and Microsoft CodePlex board member Miguel de Icaza. Stallman is against the
use of Mono.
Would you rather listen to Stallman or some Microsoft booster (with multiple
certificates to prove it) and a bunch of rabid anti-Linux trolls who for some
reason just *LOVE* Mono and Moonlight?
I think the trolls are unfortunately giving us a hint and flagging their
master's Trojan horse.
