Greetings all!
Given that there has been some turbulence on this risk over Mono
(namely the threat of patents and alleged censorship), I think it's
worth drawing attention to this post: The ECMA C# and CLI Standards

It appears to me that the most important point has been forgotten: the
accusations of censorship. This, if true, is very alarming...
We can bicker over Mono all we like, but if people are being censored,
like the OP suggests, something is _very_ wrong.
Just my $0.02...

There are specific events pointed to. I don't think your realize the
severity of the accusations you're making (or supporting...). You are
accusing members of the FOSS community of deliberately censoring and
suppressing people. You are asking for people to

And your sounding like a bloodhound. Attacking everyone in sight is
not the way to handle this.
If you want to get this problem fixed, be polite.

of thought.
I don't think Mono is a particularly useful language myself, but
people are
