DotGNU keeping you from getting tangled in a .NET DotGNU's strategy for these areas is not only technologically superior, but it also serves to ensure that no-one will ever have the kind of monopoly power which would be necessary for ending the free exchange of digital information. In the beginnings of the DotGNU project, we were concerned primarily about the vendor lock-in problem for webservices and about Microsoft's plan to unleash a "Hailstorm" which has in the meantime been dropped, because all the major companies which sell services to consumers have realised that this "Hailstorm" would not be good for them. For example, the DotGNU approach to "web services" will make it possible for end users to run webservice software on their own PC, so that the users are not forced to migrate their data to the webservice servers. www.dotgnu.org /danger.html   (1392 words)

DotGNU - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia DotGNU aims to be for webservices and for C# programs what GNU/Linux is rapidly becoming for desktop and server applications: the industry leader and provider of Free Software solutions. DotGNU Portable.NET, an implementation of the Common Language Infrastructure (CLI), more commonly known as.NET, includes everything that you need to compile and run C# and C applications that use the base class libraries, XML, and Systems.Windows.Forms. In constrast, the main goal of another open source CLI implimentation, the Mono Project is to provide 100% compatable class libraries for both the CLS specification and with the class library currently released by Microsoft for their commercial version of.NET, which itself does not currently fully comply the CLS specification published by ECMA. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/DotGNU   (744 words)

DotGNU Project DotGNU Portable.NET, which builds a suite of compilers (the currently supported languages are C and C#, with Java support in the works), C# class library, and related development tools. Following a complaint that DotGNU did not yet have a compiler for a minimalistic programming language, such a compiler was quickly created, together with a demo webservice. DotGNU now has a collaborative webpage at wiki.dotgnu.org and is building a collection of information related to dotgnu and its subprojects. gnu.ccp14.ac.uk /projects/dotgnu   (2546 words)

DotGnuVsMono - DotGNU Wiki   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03) DotGNU is able to beat Mono for simple string output on Microsoft Windows as Mono ships their runtime with a wrapper script on this platform. "What is the difference between DotGNU and Mono?" is definitely a frequently-asked question, which indicates a desire for a detailed, objective, unbiased, up-to-date comparison of the two projects, which aims to make it easier for potential users to evaluate both projects in view of their requirements. The DotGNU project is working on implementing a webservices infrastructure which will include not only a flexible webservice server system (including ASP.NET compatibility) and appropriate libraries (with support for standard webservice protocols such as SOAP and RPC-XML), but also solutions to the webservice data lock-in problem and the service discovery problem. wiki2.dotgnu.info /DotGnuVsMono   (4416 words)

2001 -- The Year When DotGNU Was Born DotGNU is focused, among other things, on authentication services and platform independent bytecode solutions while the phpGroupWare team focuses on Groupware based solutions. The DotGNU webservice server requires that for each webservice and each set of data that it acts on, there is an "owner of the data" who has the right to download the entire set of data together with the program which implements the webservice. DotGNU has the potential to bring together years of work in programming language integration research, and marry it beautifully with web services. lwn.net /2002/0103/a/dotgnu.php3   (4753 words)

DotGNU Project - StartAid DotGNU currently consists of three main development projects (further components will be added over time): DotGNU Portable.NET, an implementation of the Common Language Infrastructure (CLI), more commonly known as ".NET", includes everything that you need to compile and run C# and C applications that use the base class libraries, XML, and Systems.Windows.Forms. Major motivations for being involved in DotGNU include: A desire to prevent Microsoft from achieving their stated goal "that the era of open computing, the free exchange of digital information that has defined the personal computer industry, is ending". DotGNU is part of GNU and thereby protected from coming under the control of any single company. www.startaid.com /comment/23505/DotGNU-Project.html   (404 words)

Mono and dotGNU: what's the point? | The Register According to SD Times, one of the goals of dotGNU in 2004 is to “have System.Windows.Forms under XWindows.” Great. Microsoft is working on adding edit-and-continue to VB.NET, generics to C#, embedding the CLR into the next version of SQL Server, and making a stack of improvements to managed C++. Mono and dotGNU are interesting projects for people who are interested in computer languages, compiler construction and other fairly esoteric, hard-core areas of software engineering. www.theregister.com /2004/02/11/mono_and_dotgnu_whats   (779 words)

Motivation - DotGNU Wiki   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03) DotGNU has the potential of solving a number of problems that currently keep developers in the habit of creating a central server. DotGNU is about cooperation between developers, users, languages, platforms, and communications, without the cost of Freedom. DotGNU gives us a way of checking out, at least in part (as it stands now), what.NET could give us (if anything) without having to give up our freedom to share our code. wiki2.dotgnu.info /Motivation   (354 words)

Network Theory Ltd - GNU Friends - An Interview with Norbert Bollow of DotGNU Norbert Bollow is one of the founders of the DotGNU project and a member of its steering committee. For DotGNU, the most important of these streams is the efforts of Rhys Weatherley in Australia, an expert in the area of compiler development who wanted to do a Free Software project. The resulting discussion made me realise this DotGNU project is an important step in my long-term quest to create a viable ecosystem of Free Software businesses, and for this reason I was motivated to put a lot of energy into shaping the strategic vision of DotGNU. www.network-theory.co.uk /articles/bollow.html   (2220 words)

PatentFUD - DotGNU Wiki   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03) The DotGNU project however needs to be concerned about making sure that Microsoft's patent FUD tactics will not prevent the project from achieving its objectives. The power of patents in general, and software patents in particular, is to some extent limited by antitrust law: It is illegal to abuse patents in monopolistic ways, and it is legal to infringe patents in situations where patent abuse is happening. The concern that Microsoft might possibly be interested in enforcing patents against Free Software projects such as DotGNU or Mono is confirmed by statements which Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer made in March 2003 at CeBit, Germany's main IT exhibition. wiki2.dotgnu.info /PatentFUD   (3727 words)

DotGnu s'allie à Portable.Net :: UnixTech :: Portail du monde unix et du logiciel libre   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03) DotGnu, qui est un méta-projet, va donc s'allier à Portable.Net, le projet de Rhys Weatherley. Il est intéressant de noter que DotGNU passe un accord avec une petite entreprise australienne plutôt que de s'attacher à aider le projet Mono de Ximian, lancé il y a plus longtemps et qui avait reçu l'assentiment de Microsoft. Le fait que DotGnu s'accorde avec une entreprise discrète du libre, "engagée dans l'Open Source et Linux", et pas avec Ximian n'est peut-être pas étranger à certains petits problèmes relationnels entre les deux entités. www.unixtech.be /modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=1090   (382 words)

Synopsis on what DotGNU Is - OSNews.com DotGNU is an offical GNU project; it is an attempt at providing a viable alternative to Microsoft's.NET and Hailstorm business strategies. DotGNU is a "meta project" composed of many different services; the main goal, as taken from the DotGNU FAQ, is "... Suffice to say, the DotGNU project and Portable.NET have a lot to offer the GNU community — an entire breadth of technology ranging from webservices to a GNU-based authorization system (think "Hailstorm" but Free!) to.NET compatability, all in one convient, coherent package. www.osnews.com /story.php?news_id=7220   (950 words)

Haiku :: View topic - Port of DotGNU or The Mono Project   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03) No new Haiku applications would be written using it, and really, when you change OS and continue using the same applications - it defeats the purpose - e.g. I would also like to point out that the only real "Windows-like" development that is done in.NET is with Microsoft's Winforms, but there is certainly no requirement that developers use it - just as there's no requirement that developers use the GTK# bindings either... As far as supporting obscure functions that should be left up to groups like mono or DotGNU where possible. www.haiku-os.org /forums/viewtopic.php?t=184   (1737 words)

Dot-Net and Open Source — jace.seacrow.com For legal reasons, a developer contributing to DotGNU currently has to sign a statement that the developer has not read any code distributed by Microsoft under their shared source license. Both Mono and DotGNU frequently reuse code from either project and a lawsuit could be disastrous to both projects. DotGNU’s supporters in turn claim that Mono is only achieving extending Microsoft’s monopoly to even the Unix market now. jace.seacrow.com /writing/2002/dot-net-and-open-source   (1018 words)
