Re: [Mono-list] Patents are coming...

[Pablo Baena]

I don't think this will be negative at all. No matter what Perens said, a Microsoft bad move in this respect would simply undermine all their efforts to promote .NET, the open source crowd will simply move on to use other technologies (I know I would, .NET has some really nice stuff, but nothing that I can't live without or can't work around). Microsoft doesn't really have something original here, other technologies already exist that can be used instead of .NET.

Relax...
