Inteview with Miguel De Icaza. Talking with the GNOME creator about its origins and purpose. [Linux Journal]
Interesting interview. Miguel is still pursuing Mono (OSS .Net platform) and seems to have some very interesting reasons why. My big take-away: He's interested in the .Net innovation of creating a byte code specification that can be adapted to any language - C++, Eiffel, Lisp, Java, etc. When you put it that way, it sounds interesting to me too. I would love to be able to have my choice of language in development.
Of course, this all comes back to someone must support your work. So, the language you program in IS going to matter.
