Re: Will there be a Redhat of Linux .NET?

I'm quite honestly struggling to see what Microsoft's DotNet is going to offer that Mono didn't already.

If it's released under the Apache 2.0 Licence, as implied in the article, then what this offers is an explicit patent licence grant.

Mono always seemed to come with threats of patent prosecution if you didn't get it from Suse...
