[good] RE: [Mono-list] Q: how's using Mono in the corporate/enterprise world?

[ted leslie]

We (an ISP in Toronto) have used it for two sizable projects to date,
1) the backend of a Macromedia flash music player service for the music 
festival  NXNE  (a sister fest to SXSW),
    which had ~400 bands playing in Toronto just this last week. And 
this music model will be used for other venues/showcases.
2) the Canadian Wide Science Fair - A site that organizes all the 
students across Canada that do a Science Fair (in the finals).
       this involved a conversion of MS-SQL to Postgres, the only hitch 
was Postgres doesn't appear to support multiple DataSet return (from 
function/SP),
       and thus we devised a procedure to kinda emulate this.
