Now that Mono 1.0 has been released successfully, the cross-platform landscape is forever changed. What are our ximian friends at Novell working on now? They are shooting for a 1.2 release in February. Details here.
Focus is on:
- C# 2.1 implementation
- AMD64 JIT port.
- Visual Basic compiler.
- Improved IO-Layer and Internationalization framework.
- Gtk# improvement and GUI designer.
- Mono Debugger.
- Windows.Forms support.
- JIT performance work.
- Integration of patches that were too big to make it into the 1.0 release.
- Code Access Security Framework.
- Continued bug fixing of major and critical bugs.
