Mono Project Releases Version 1.0

theblackdeer writes "Just poking around the go-mono.com Mono website; it's now the multi-colored mono-project.com. Even better, it updated before my eyes to include the 1.0 release. Screenshots are (slightly) updated, too. Mono 1.0 includes the Mono Develop IDE (based on SharpDevelop, I believe). Download now and start your GTK# engines!" Alliante adds "You can download the Release Notes and the Packages on their website."

mono makes your throat sore. you get it from kissing girls. actually i guess that's not going to be a concern around here.

I never thought I'd be chanting this, But...

Go Mono, Go! I hope you infect everybody!

(at least I'm not back in college anymore, where they would've probably hauled me away in straight jacket for chanting that...)

I recommend these people try the HURD. I hear they need a bunch of wannabee uber-geeks to test their kernel...

Plus, you can bitch and moan all you want about it being the One True Gnu, and be right for a change.

I was just thinking the same. I personally think of crosshurd [debian.org]. This lets you choose between several kernels (4 at the moment) for a lot of architectures (12 [debian.org] at the moment). This should be 1337 enough for anyone... However, if everything else fails, what about good old Plan 9 [bell-labs.com]?

Longhorn is a ruse

All the Microsoft developers are secretly rewriting MS Office in C#.NET.

As soon as the Mono guys finish the hard part of the Linux port, MS will abandon Windows, fork Linux and start selling MS Linux bundled w/ Mono (and of course, Firefox with the new IE theme), and MS Office for Linux.

It's just crazy enough to work.

I don't know about you, but every animal I find attractive in that way is indeed a primate.

And uncompiled source code runs on which processors?
