2006-11-11: Mono
To defuse the situation a bit: Mono Mono is a good piece of software which I like and use quite often. The catch is that I don’t think Mono’s stable yet. Some parts of mono are, others are not. As the term ‘Mono’ is normally associated with the whole suite (compiler, library, tools) this is, from my point of view, acceptable.
Dissension on implementation details is permitted (even for open source software), I think.

Objective criticisms are always welcome. Rants like ‘mcs supports emacs’ ergo ‘the framework will never improve’ are not.
On your previous blog:
When it come to supporting ‘legacy’ frameworks like emacs, coding
style doesn’t matter. What matters is that 1000s of developers don’t
have to change their emacs config nor do they have to wait for
an emacs fix, which can take years to spread.
