Mono in Spanish means Monkey. The folks at Ximian are going to be wasting
their time. Check out Internet Week for a good story on this.

What a minute. Several anti-Microsofters just got through posting
comments about how this Mono thing "cut off Bill's balls" or something
similar and was turning "extend and embrace" around to backfire on
Microsoft.

Make up your minds already.

``While giving the project its blessing, Microsoft also cautioned against
violating Microsoft's intellectual property.

The license for Mono software needs to be compatible with Microsoft's
licensing policy, Goodhew said. He declined to comment further on the
licensing issue.''

Remember, Mono is supposed to come under the GPL and LGPL - Microsoft's
favourite licenses...

Really?? Who wrote that - and what exactly did they say?

It looks more like they'll be following Bill around - a bit
like StarOffice, and Wine do today.
