Not again! Fortunately when Attachmate acquired Novell it didn't stop mono/linux. Xamarin was completely focused on mobile apps but for the core of mono and monodevelop it has been great times.
But what will happen now? Will Microsoft silently kill cross platform, especially linux? What interest do they have not to do it?
Having invested heavily in a linux/mono/web stack this worries me a lot.
- sparkie 13y agoMight be worth reminding that Mono and Monodevelop are still LGPL license software, so they can't exactly "shut it down". The Xamarin products for mobile development are not freely licensed - that's what Microsoft are purchasing.
