    First thing you do is go interview for a job at M$. That is the ONLY way you will be able to write .NET-compatible, working C# code. The mono stuff is doomed to be a linux-only "broken" implementation of M$-C# and .NET.


    IF you want to code the same way but for linux and other OSes, then you should read up on Java. THAT'S the better path to interoperability between platforms and oses. Fact. Sorry, but a FACT.

    ...and let someone at FSF at least take a look at the BNF (or whatever) for Java and C# and come up with some kind of well designed language that is not controlled/created by Sun or MS.

    Properly designed, such a language could practically auto translate from C# or Java.

    The back end JIT could make Java, CIL or FSF(?) bytecodes.

    Don't let MS destroy the free side. Get rid of Miguel and his greed/power worship now.
