DotGNU and Mono Continue

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the well-isn't-that-exciting dept.

saurik writes "After what has been a strange few weeks of converse between the DotGNU and Mono teams (including a small PR SNAFU that involved the banning of a member from the DotGNU mailing list), DotGNU has now announced that they will be forming a partnership with Portable.NET." Frankly I like that there are 2 efforts going on. Maybe one will succeed.

    We fight amongst ourselves so much that we can't present a unified front against (much more organized) Closed Source efforts.
    You mean like the "unified" database market -- Oracle versus DB2 versus Sybase versus Cloudscape versus MS SQL Server? Or the "unified" enterprise OS market -- Solaris versus HPUX versus AIX versus Linux/BSD versus NT? Or the "unified" web application market (too many products to list)?

    For once, open source can publicly set the standard and let Microsoft catch up.

    Sorry, won't happen. Microsoft is a leader, while the open sores kids were born to chase the taillights. Enjoy the fumes, fuckers. :)
