[TriLUG] SuSE

[Bob Shepherd]

As far as I know there is no .NET port to Linux or any non-MS OS.  I merely 
develop applications using Kate2.1 in KDE.  It has native syntax highlighting 
support for C#.  The applications themselves are implemented in Win2K Server 
+ Sql7.0 + IIS5, a legacy of my workplace.  If MS were to port the .NET 
framework to Linux, I would be first in line to try it.
