Mono .NET Mac OS X Subvision and TeamServer/VSTS

225025

　　Mono provides the necessary software to develop and run .NET client and server applications on Linux, Solaris, Mac OS X, Windows, and Unix.  Sponsored by Novell (http://www.novell.com),
the Mono open source project has an active and enthusiastic
contributing community and is positioned to become the leading choice
for development of Linux applications.



Mono consists of three groups of components

• Core components(C# compiler, the virtual machine, and the base class libraries)
  
• Mono/Linux/GNOME development stack(Gtk#,
  Mozilla libraries for layout, Unix integration libraries, database
  connectivity libraries, a security stack, and the XML schema language RelaxNG.)
  
• Microsoft compatibility stack.(ADO.NET, ASP.NET, and Windows.Forms, among others.)

　　Mono Develop ready for fire.
　　Try to create a new multi-language web solution(ASP.NET) of .NET framework. SharpDevelop experience will power up now..
