Vlad, It probably won't do your presentation justice, but my uISV site is totally Mono with some cool stuff like being Postgres-backed and integrating with the Google Checkout API. When orders are processed, it does on-demand software compilation to generate a license assembly. And calls into NAnt and NSIS to create an installation package.
If nothing else, it's a good example of a small shop working successfully with FOSS. Kudos to Miguel and his amazing team at Novell. -Abe http://www.obtusesoft.com On Fri, Jan 9, 2009 at 12:52 PM, Vladimir Giszpenc <[email protected]> wrote: > I saw Miguel's presentation and really was impressed.
