Microsoft .NET CLI
Steve G Swine writes "That mammoth ECMA standards implementation project now builds on Mac OS X 10.2. The license is a little corporate, but actually seems clearer and less strident than some other licenses. Go, build, learn, have fun!"
Yup! Just 7 posts down. Can we stop the stupid-ass troll advertisement for .NET CLI already?!?!?!?!?!
I've read it, and no longer give a rats ass. And it seems others agree. Quit with the MS BS posts on the Apple section. We read it already!
Just my $0.02!

Make a .Net category for this stuff and /. editors wouldn't miss these redundant stories. Who knows what kind of crap/interesting news will come out about .Net in the future but whatever it is I don't want to read about it in the BSD/Linux/OS X/non-.Net category.
Thanks.
A fool throws a stone into a well and a thousand sages can not remove it.
By using technology owned by Microsoft, you give your support for their actions used to provide the technology you are using. And by supporting their actions, you give Microsoft more power, which they already have used questionably.
I understand your negligence if freedom means you nothing, and/or you feel that the freedom is purely some sort of religious matter.
By looking back in history, we can see that the moral ignorance of the masses, has brought the 'wrong' leaders in power. In todays world multinational corporations are the true leaders in power. Therefore my only options are to vote with my wallet and talent. So for me choosing my tools by manufacturer is not a religious statement, but rather a moral one.
We could endlessly argue of what would the Microsoft-only world be like. I personally like true capitalism, where there's a real competition.
It's good to whine, while you still can.

The clearer and less strident license used by Microsoft just prove one thing: that MS product is a joke, a toy. They just hope that once you will have played with it enough, you will get the real product, with a real license.
