The Mono project has released Mono 2.0. As most of you will know, Mono is an open-source implementation of Microsoft's .NET framework for Linux, Mac OS X, Windows, and other operating systems. The 2.0 release comes packed with new features, the main ones being the compiler upgrade to C# 3.0 with support for LINQ, as well as the inclusion of ADO.NET 2.0, ASP.NET 2.0 and System.Windows.Forms 2.0. The release notes detail all the changes and new features.

I agree. From an app dev point of view it puts more options on the table. I'd rather code desktop apps in C# than java or C. Isnt this a no-brainer? I use java for other things and like it more than C# but personal prefernces aside, providing another development offering is always a good thing regardless of your preferences and experiences.
