GNOME FoundationIBM buying GUADEC Through Red Hat staff, what the heck Software patents in check As long as they write the cheque

"I'd like to see Gnome applications written in .NET in version 4.0 - no, version 3.0. But Gnome 4.0 should be based on .NET."

--"Gnome to be based on .NET – de Icaza" (Miguel de Icaza, now at Microsoft along with his successor Stormy Peters)



"We could refresh the look and feel of the entire desktop with Moonlight"

--Miguel de Icaza
