[Mono-list] Platforms Mono will support?

[Bob Smith]

Exactly. Right now for one of my CIS classes, I'm forced into using an W2K
server for all my web stuff, and while I can create C# code and eventually
bring it over to mono/linux soon, there are other people wanting to help
me that only know VB. While I am not too fond of the language, it will
allow alot of apps to be pulled over to linux in time.
