Mono Project When Microsoft chief software architect Ray Ozzie unveiled Silverlight at MIX07, he vowed that it would be a cross-platform technology. It appears as if the software giant is making good on that pledge: SD Times has learned that some of Microsoft's top developers have provided technical guidance for a Linux implementation of Silverlight.

As for other platforms, Microsoft has already implemented it in-house for the Mac. There is no other platform that matters to a significant degree in the consumer space. OSNews is not a normal demographic; it's simply not worth the effort to implement this stuff for the small number of consumers who are on linux.

It would make more sense to implement this stuff on Linux before Mac considering Linux has a larger userbase than Mac.
