This topic just came up.  I did note that the Mainsoft is collaborating
on the Mono project and I need to read up on it.  The following is from
the Mainsoft site:
-----------------------------
What are the major differences between Mainsoft for Java EE and Mono? 
There are three primary differences between Mainsoft for Java EE and
Mono: 

Mainsoft's runtime strategy is based on Java EE and proven enterprise
quality and platform availability. Mono implements its own .NET
execution engine, the Common Language Infrastructure (CLI), on several
Linux and UNIX-based platforms. 

Mainsoft for Java EE focuses exclusively on Web and server applications,
while Mono also supports desktop applications, with Gtk# and
Windows.Forms. 

Mainsoft for Java EE is fully integrated into the Visual Studio IDE
whereas Mono uses its own IDE.

Thanks for the reply,

What doesn't the mono environment provide to enable the apps to run? Or
is
it a case of WAS not knowing how to run them?
