Thanks for the feedback, Dave. Some other anti-MS folks have said the same thing.
How would you feel if we could get Plum working with MySQL under Mono? I don't know how compatible it will be with Mono, but that won't matter if there is still political resentment over Plum being built using the .NET Framework. I'm certainly not criticizing your preferences; I'm only trying to understand them (which I assume are similar to many other people's preferences) so we can try to make Plum better for more people. And also, thanks for your help during the Beta testing. Very helpful to all, and very much appreciated.
