[Mono-dev] Mono and IBM

[Carlos Ruiz Diaz]

I think there is no solution for this particular problem, at least for now.

I have to decide which language and architecture to use in a major project
that I have to start soom. My very first idea was C/C++ but I don't have
much time to think about typical problems that this language and its
environment brings when memory management, pointers, regular expressions,
SQL and multithreading comes to play together. I highly prefer mono and C#
running in a Linux particion inside de AS/400 with four PPC cores :S.

Do you think that is reliable and secure to build a high availability system
that manage money in real time using mono and C#?

How good is the .NET DB2 connector that mono offers to the public?

Thanks to all for the reply.
