Mono Project The Mono debate over on the GNOME desktop developer mailing list is heating up again. Philip Van Hoof makes a compelling argument about the need for GNOME decision makers to take into consideration future developers and the over-reliance of C and GObject in GNOME. At what point does a general-purpose, high level framework and runtime become a necessity for GNOME?

Thats mostly true.
The only reasons against [java,mono] are political ones... I dont want use _any_ mono apps and many people want use java ones (despite java IS faster than mono ;) see http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/debian/benchmark.php?test=all&lan... ) ...

Fortunately its OSS - if we dont like [#,j]Gnome we can use KDE or XFCE

peace
