This is a rather short-sighted viewpoint, I have to say. If you were talking
about today, Monday April 12, 2004, then ya, sure, if the election were
today then Windows.NET would win

I strongly disagree with the statement if Mono PPC
Hi all,
Developing and delivering software like Mono is not an easy task and a complex engineering project. We're committed to delivering Mono 1.0 in June and supporting the Linux x86, MacOS X platforms, have no doubt about that. As you know we also intend to provide support for Solaris and Linux
I would add that Free software is not free as in free beer. It is
free as in freedom to do what you want with it, and with freedom
comes responsibility.
At first glance, since I have only seen this snippet of his original

my problem with gtk# personally is that mac os x is not supported.
although you can find people who hacked it together, if you co it
from cvs, and install it, the samples don't work. i don't have a linux
box, only a mac, and i would love to play with mono on it, but it's
been two months now,
Hello,
Grudgingly, I have to agree with above statement(s). Mono support for
Mac OS X/ PPC is fragile at best. I even tried to put together a page
on the basic steps (

Hello,
Down the road you may be able to run gtk-sharp on Mac or Windows, or run
Windows.Forms on *nix and Mac, but I would not recommend that, since
- Gtk is the native UI platform for *nix
- Windows.Forms is the native UI platform for Windows

Sadly, I must agree. The mono team have made excellent progress on bringing PPC into
the JIT era but.
On a whim, I decided to install fedora core 1 and build mono. It built and installed
without incident. Truly remarkable. I must say that I was impressed. XSP kept
crashing, but that
