Re: Mono apps in extras

Looking back at the recently announced OIN initiative, in retrospect, what I claimed was NotTrue(TM) proved to be TheTruth(TM), down to the individual company names. This was an educated guess (really, Greg I hope you didn't fall over each other trying to figure out how this guy in Sweden could know what you were doing) so if anyone is looking for an OS business analyst... :-)

(OIN, Greg spills the beans on Mono: http://gregdek.livejournal.com/4008.html)

Cool now you sound like a federal comission :-)

That statement alone indeed confirms that it is a hot potato.

In absence of statements we can happily start speculating which will in turn generate rumors. Here is my first RockingSpeculation(TM) which is certainly NotTrue(TM): RedHat has struck a deal of sorts with /insert big company name here/ that their lawyers shall go after Microsoft for all their patents they break in case Microsoft sue Red Hat or the Fedora foundation for any patent infringements.

/big company/ could be for example Novell since they sort of make Mono, or could even be IBM. Both hold many patents dangerous to Microsoft.
