Guys,
As a Windoze programmer who has been following the progress of Mono
with interest, I thought I would throw in my two cents here. I think
that many Micro$oft programmers like me would actually prefer a non-Wine
implementation, as long as the necessary module changes are encapsulated
or kept to a minimum. After all, what are IFDEF statements for if not to
support slightly different compilations? Give me as much native code /
speed as you can, and stop trying to play Micro$oft's game - even if you
achieve compatibility, they will change the rules, and mono will always
be playing catch-up. I vote for GTK#.
