It's quite nice to read if you want to find out if writing .Net programs for Linux will have a future for you. The Mono roadmap is available here." And gibbon writes "The DotGNU Project announced the availability of the DotGNU 0.1 CD-ROM release. It runs on many platforms and the CD contains documentation, packages for GNU/Linux, FreeBSD and MS Windows. It is now possible to use the base class libraries and XML. System.Windows.Forms and the web services are coming along well, too. The announcement contains more information and download links."

Well, don't you guys forget that there is only about 10% of the .NET on the ECMA. And there is a thing called "sub-license prohibition" where m$ tells you that you can use the stuff they provide, but can't redistribute it on a different license. So, goodye poor GPL. If you guys wants to be sure are writing free software, move away from this.
