Mono: A Developer’s Notebook $18.95 The Mono Project is the much talked about open source initiative to create a Unix implementation of Microsoft’s .NET Development Framework. Its purpose is to allow Unix developers to build and deploy cross platform .NET applications. The project has also sparked interest in developing components, libraries and frameworks with C#, the programming language of .NET. The controversy? Some say Mono will become the preferred platform for Linux development, empowering Linux/Unix developers. Others say it will allow Microsoft to embrace, extend, and extinguish Linux. The controversy rages on, but like many developers maybe you’ve had enough talk and want to see what Mono is really all about. There’s one way to find out: roll up your sleeves, get to work, and see what you Mono can do. How do you start? You can research Mono at length. You can play around with it, hoping to figure things out for yourself.
