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.

Simple questions

Simple questions:
do you trust Microsoft?
could we make Gnome's future dependant on Microsoft?
what happens to applications written with Mono if Microsoft gets angry?
what if those applications are a core part of Gnome?
why Novell still hasn't cleared Mono legal issues, even though they promised to do it months ago?
Microsoft just got a patent on FAT (developed in the 80's) and started asking for money in order to use it: what if this happens to Mono?
