Summary: The Trojan horse of Microsoft, Xamarin, is pushing .NET into Microsoft's console competitor

EARLIER this month we learned about Xamarin signing deals with Microsoft after receiving funds from the firm of 'former' Microsoft executives. Those two entities not only collaborate on code inside Mono but they also collaborate on many other things, including, based on Phoronix, infecting the PlayStation 4 like they tried to infect Android for years. "For those wanting to work on console games in C#, Mono's PlayStation 4 support work appears to be progressing well," Phoronix explains, citing Microsoft MVP Miguel de Icaza, who has more to say.

Never think that people who work for Microsoft will do anything other than promote Microsoft's agenda. The firm Black Duck, created by a Microsoft manager (and now enjoying a special partnership with Microsoft), is still pretending to be a spokesperson for FOSS. How gross is that? ⬆
