Mono is an open source-licensed project, so if a MS developer starts working in Mono, aren't they effectively working with Open source??
- icey 17y agoYes, and then they hear about how Mono is a terrible abomination according to rms. That's the crux of my point.
- thwarted 17y agoThis is why we don't see more open source developers developers migrating to develop on Windows. They are curious but then they hear how open source is a terrible abomination according to Microsoft. (Admittedly, not the exactly the same, in one case rms is attacking your new choice, and in the other Microsoft is attacking your old choice, but it doesn't make either side attractive to the other).
- icey 17y agoI don't think we've really heard much about Microsoft needing more developers though. Certainly not in the sense that open source needs more developers.
