Red Hat was the main opponent against the inclusion of Mono on their products or Gnome's core for the past few years. This situation was creating tention within the Gnome community. But this is all past now and Fedora Core 5 will include Mono, and some of its front row applications like Beagle, Tomboy and F-Spot will be too.

huh

It's nothing personal but you are a moron or very much disinformed. MS has very little to do with C# and MS DIDNOT create C#. The only thing that MS owns is the .net framework and while Mono works in a similar way it is not .net. In fact Mono will never be .net since no one can use the improvements that came with 2.0 without paying a licence fee.

All that said I am not much of a fan of Mono myself but beagle is a good project and deserves respect. Still with most of the improvements scheduled for KDE 4 I don't think that even Mono can save Gnome from it's doom. I guess that's what happens when you do everything possible to chase away your developers.
