MainSoft and Mono.

Following up my Running Dot-Net apps in a J2EE environment post about MainSoft's new MainWin for J2EE product, I found that MainSoft uses and contributes to Mono - a GPL an MIT licensed version of the Dot-Net class libaries:

<a href= "http://primates.ximian.com/~miguel/all.html#2%2F17%2F04%2012%3A00%3A00%20a"> Miguel de Icaza: Mainsoft has been using Mono's class libraries to deliver the functionality and they are regular contributors to the code base. We wish them much luck with their new product.

Correction: Mono's libraries are released under the MIT X11 license. They are not GPL. Other components of Mono (the compilers) are under the GPL.

That is nice to know. I've corrected my post. Thanks Miguel.
