Hello Mateusz,
Nice job! Do you plan to add SilverLight (moonlight) to MonoDevelop,
Yeah, the MonoDevelop team will be adding some Silverlight support to it.
As for the tool, I think it is a great idea! We should look into that

Hey,
As I mentioned in my Adobe AIR review ([link]
Ah, this is a great resource!
I personally think that AIR has too many limitations to be useful for
So I take it there are no APIs for accessing the local file system, they

This is a great idea.

One of the consistent criticisms of the Mono/Moonlight project is that
it is simply following Microsoft and giving some of their proprietary
technologies - including their a/v codecs - a toehold on the Linux
desktop.

The mopen functionality is a great chance to demonstrate the worth of

As I mentioned in my Adobe AIR review ([link]
post/20080303-first-look-breat he-in-the-air.html) AIR doesn't allow

Perfect timing. At our local Microsoft "Heroes Happen Here" event

His response was "Use WPF," with another Microsoft presenter chipping

OOXML: The Wins on 02 Apr 2008

I interviewed Patrick Durusau today. He believes that the OOXML
problems will be fixed.

- The problems will be fixed, although some will take longer than
others. You have to remember that we are not lacking XML-expertise in
the committee. I really am optimistic, says Durusau.
