Microsoft open sources .NET, takes it to Linux and OS X

[Starkadius 219]

Microsoft announced that its full server .NET stack, including the just-in-time compiler and runtime and the core class libraries that all .NET software depends on, will all be open sourced...The code will be hosted on GitHub and published under a permissive MIT-style license...

 

The company is working with the Mono community to make sure that this platform is "enterprise-ready." Visual Studio is getting yet another SKU to add to its list of variants: Visual Studio 2013 Community. This is another zero-cost version of Visual Studio, sitting alongside the Express SKUs, but with a couple of important differences.

 

Just thought I share this bit of news  for the developers in the community.
