>> and GNOME to become a .net project for all intents and purposes by this time next year.

this is ridiculous. even if it were desirable, even if all gnome coders were in favor of such a move, you would not see such a migration in so short a period of time. mono will continue to be a strong option.

>> So if this is a trap

set by who? why?

>> And since RedHat never publicly discussed exactly what legal problem they saw originally

how do you know it was a legal issue? as far as i can tell they simply didn't want to endorse a tool being promoted by its chief competitor novell.

>> just hope Debian keeps mono out

mono is packaged for debian and has been cleared by debian people with regards to these so-called issues
