The beta for Moonlight 2.0 is now available. It's considered feature complete and is ready to test against Silverlight 2.0-minded websites. Microsoft has already gone and released Silverlight 3.0, but the Moonlight team is pretty confident that users will generally be able to access most if not all web content while Silverlight 3.0 is still young. Moonlight will ask to update itself to the beta automatically in Firefox, but new users can also download the plugin.

Hopefully what'll mean is a variety of options for developers; Silverlight/Moonlight, Flash, JavaFX or HTML5/Javascript. Competition benefiting not only the end user but developers as well.
It might benefit developers with capacious brains that are sheltered in nuke proof craniums. But you better stand clear of lesser ones, lest you be smeared in blood and brain tissue.
