I’m starting to get more questions about .NET with Linux, using ASP.NET with Apache, writing Web Services in C# with Mono, etc. I’m providing some excerpts and paraphrasing here of recent exchanges I’ve had with prospects and clients.
The site has been updated to WordPress v2.0.1, the very latest version of the blog software available. This requires the simultaneous update of many plugins from independent authors.
