Whats hot and whats not
A lot of this, most of the Mono guys know, but still blog worthy …
Enterprise Databasing
- HOT PostgreSQL 8.0 The king!
- NOT SQL Server 2005 New XML datatype and built in Native Client libraries where everything is web service based and exposed via IIS/http.sys via port 80 (Can’t wait till a new slammer comes out that attacks this on port 80 and all the ISPs start blocking it.)
Email on Mono/.NET
- HOT DotNetOpenMail Excellent! Great design and handles mulitple languages better than anything on the market.
- NOT AspNetEmail ohh loooky, I can add asp.net like controls and databind them in my emails, thats really useful… (*sarcasim*)
Python on Mono/.NET
- HOT Boo
- NOT IronPython Nice one, Microsoft! Love that shared source license (*sarcasm*)
Rapid Application Development
- HOT Ruby On Rails
- NOT Does anything really compare ? ? ?
Other Stuff…
- HOT SQLLite What more do you need in a basic SQL engine?
- HOT DotLucene Text indexing to the max!
- HOT NUnit Of course!
- WARM TestDriven.NET VS.NET users (do knock till you tried it)
- WARM SourceGear Vault Not my favorite source control product but I give them love for the Mono support.
- HOT Subversion Everyone is doing it.

Just curious, it seems that the IronPython license is “Shared Source” in name only. Do you believe that the IronPython license is not Free Software?
I am a big Mono fan, and Boo is nice (I am glad to see it in Debian), but I am hoping that IronPython (or some derivative of the 0.6 release) makes it into Debian too. I am very excited about using my C# libraries with Python.

Well Microsoft bought the guy that worked on it. The 0.6 version wasn’t all that free with the creative commons license ether. I’m not sure how Debian will take it.

Funny part of the license FAQ is the statement:
‘We believe it stands up to what developers demand of an “open” license.’

Hey Zac
Thanks for the list.
Do you know MonoRail?
It’s an RAD-effort (like Ruby on Rails) for .NET.

Erik, I’m still working on it when I get the chance. I have a new windows desktop on the way from Dell so I’m going to start working on it again. Going to buckel down on gtk# on win32 big time now that GConf and ORBit has been ported

Hi,
Actually quite offtopic but in a recent preview blog entry (http://zacbowling.com/blog/2005/04/22/carbon-based-unit-2) you told about gtkembedmoz for win32 and that it was almost ready for release. How is the progress on this as I’m still having problems with the destroy bug (as noted in bugzilla) ?
TIA and keep up the good work!
