Mono Progress In the Past Year

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the lumbering-ever-onwards dept.

Eugenia writes "OSNews posted an article accounting the applications created in GTK# the past 8 months, since the release of Mono 1.0. While many of them are still in their infancy, it's clear that the platform had a healthy progress, with 'super-hits' like Tomboy, F-spot, MonoDevelop, Muine & Blam! and other, less known gems, like SportsTracker, PolarViewer, MooTag, GFax, GIB, Sonance and Bluefunk. The 2.0 version of Mono is expected around May, but the developers advised distros and users to upgrade to Mono 1.1.4 despite being a beta."

    Mono is a huge part of my life!

    Every morning I get up and feed F-Spot (my Beagle). Then, I get out some eggs, cheese, and MooTag to make myself an omelet. I learned how to cook omelets from Emeril. So, it's Muine & Blam! and my omelets done!

    Next, I take a shower and wash off the Bluefunk. Once dressed in my suit and my PolarViewer glasses I call down to Tomboy (our doorman) and have him GIB up a cab.

    Once at work it is non-stop Gfaxes and sneaking some time with my SportTracker.

    Yes, as a rabidly psychotic MooTag fanboy (Nothing has been holding back open-source more than the shortage of half-finished ID3 tag editors!) I am enraged at this obvious favoritism towards Blam! and F-spot!
