Declaration of Awesomeness for the Mono Compiler

MonoDevelop 2.0 Beta 1 – Miguel de Icaza

Now, technically speaking we have not received any awards for our C# 3.0 compiler, but we should have, because we are awesome. And in fact, I will be arranging a dinner at my place this coming weekend where we will award prizes to the best pieces of technologies and our C# compiler is a nominee.

We the undersigned do hereby declare the Mono C# 3.0 compiler to be awesome. This is not meant to denigrate the .NET compiler from Microsoft as it is a fine compiler in its own right. We are declaring the Mono C# 3.0 compiler to be an awesome piece of work by a ragtag group of merrymakers well-dressed group of distinguished gentlemen and worthy of all levels of awesomeness.

Leave a comment if you believe the Mono C# 3.0 compiler to be awesome.

  1. I haven’t used the latest mono yet, but it a project thoroughly deserving recognition of its awesomeness. mono has really become a viable platform for development, and has been for some time now.

  7. It oozes awesomeness from it’s pores, if it had any, which it actually doesn’t, but no matter because it can virtualize pores just to ooze from them, that’s how awesome it is.

    That is all.

    It would be much better if it had better support for ubuntu. It is difficult to install on that OS.

    Even worse is monodevelop, which I was not able to install after several hours of trying.

    Still, thanks for doing what you have done.

One Trackback/Pingback

  1. [...] I love me some Mono and love the Mono team, but Novell really screwed the pooch with the release of MonoTouch. It had such promise, write iPhone apps using C# instead of Objective-C. But it has some problems. [...]
