Novell and Ximian Last Thursday OSNews had the opportunity to meet Miguel de Icaza, founder of Gnome, Ximian and among other things leader of the much discussed, Mono project. Miguel is a talented and versatile developer but he is also a very intelligent businessman able to understand the industry on many different levels. Talking to Miguel guarantees that you are very quickly taken away by his enthusiasm and optimism and his thoughtful strategies and vision on how OSS will take over the world.

Video editors.

We are not currently working ourselves in a video editor.

I think that in the future video editing might be a required component of a standard desktop solution, as both Windows and the MacOS raise the expectation bar.

If I were to write something from scratch, I would use Mono and Gtk#, but if I were to reuse/contribute to something that has already a large codebase (maybe Kino, maybe something else), I would probably develop bindings for it, and use Mono as an extension language to do it.

Miguel.
