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
have not extended beyond the standard APIs that are available to Flash

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
you to expose native libraries or extend the runtime, which sets a
very low ceiling for scalability. You are pretty much stuck with what
you can code in ActionScript or JavaScript.

I'll be working on an application that will run on top of this. I'll
be looking at having a cross-platform solution too.
WCF udp is also needed as this is a Verse 3D protocol app.

Thank you for your work,

Perfect timing. At our local Microsoft "Heroes Happen Here" event
yesterday I asked one of the guys presenting on Silverlight the
following question: "So when are we going to get the Silverlight out-
of-browser experience on platforms other than Linux?"

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

OOXML: The Wins on 02 Apr 2008

abre...@gmail.com (abrenna) — Fri, 04 Apr 2008 23:03:16 UT

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.

As for the Windows.Forms designer: its a lot harder to do with Mono, because
