Unix was originally all about not being... Multics. If Mono is to follow a similar nomenclature (just for the kicks), we have to talk about Mono's upcoming 'monopolization' and 'monarchy' in the next generation of the Unix programming land. Your see, if everything goes well, in 2 to 3 years most new Gnome user/desktop applications will be written --hopefully-- in Mono and C#. Update: Miguel deIcaza replies.

The mono faq points to 2 ways to cover oneself from patent infringement:
a) live in a country where copyright is not protected.
b) hope that microsoft does not pull out of the EMCA. There by allowing them to sue every mono/c# developer (not using Visual Studio) like mad.
microsoft has never done anything for the good of society only what is good for business. Trusting microsoft do anything different is foolish.
