Summary: A look at Microsoft's very narrow world view when it comes to the Web

THE Mono-based Moonlight is a menace for many reasons. Even the FSF recognises this. A reader has sent us the following screenshot this morning. It helps show that in Microsoft's eyes there is only one acceptable architecture and only two platforms worthy of being served on the World Wide Web (both are proprietary).

Last year it turned out that Moblin would get Silverlight, but there is no Moblin anymore. It's merged with Maemo now and it's called MeeGo. So what's up with that? In any event, watch out for Mono traps which are still being promoted in Web sites like OMG! Ubuntu without discretion. Docky is Mono-based, just like Moonlight. ⬆
