"your only goal should be" or "I want you to"? Perhaps they just want to be able to program in a decent statically-typed language with a GC and a JIT compiler

"your only goal should be" or "I want you to"?
Perhaps they just want to be able to program in a decent statically-typed language with a GC and a JIT compiler and Gtk bindings?
- jasonkester 17y agoThat seems like a reasonable thing to want to do, and a worthy reason to split off a fork. It's certainly not worth hijacking as big or important a project as Mono to do so. Mono needs to get a direction and follow it. At the moment, they're heading in a bunch of directions at once. If they don't want to be "A .NET Runtime That Works Anywhere", then they should say as much and stand aside so that somebody else can do it.
- bretthoerner 17y ago> hijacking Uh, people are giving their time to create what they need / want. Welcome to open source, right? I don't think it's possible to "hijack" an open source project. As said above: patches are probably welcome. In the end it just sounds like you want free support from a company like Microsoft/Novell without paying a dollar.
