Submission + - Novell's Mono 1.2 supports WinForms

Submitted by smbarbour on Friday November 10, 2006 @04:40PM

smbarbour writes: The Mono project (the open-source .NET compatibility library acquired by Novell when Ximian was purchased) has released version 1.2 which now includes support for WinForms. For a more detailed summary, please see the Ars Technica article regarding this.

Also, the Mono project supports Visual Basic.NET, so developers that use VB.NET now have the possibility of directly porting applications to Linux.
