Donates or “donates”? As “all yours” or as in “it’s ours but you do the work”?
as in “your fork is official now, we have our own compatability in .net and there’s no need to maintain it”
The recognition is nice, but there hadn’t been a major release in over 5 years. I’d guess the outcome is mostly paperwork
Okay, a suspicious thanks to you, Microsoft…
…So when can we get this treatment for WMR so all our VR headsets don’t become useless bricks kthaaaanks!
Technical debt is transferred to Wine team.
They were already maintaining a fork of it though?
“”“donates”“”
Does Mono have any purpose any longer? What is the point now that dotnet core is so well-established?
Yes, Mono is used by Wine to support Windows .NET applications since it’s a) open source and b) contains support for Windows Forms and other Windows-only APIs.
They can’t ship the regular .NET framework by default for licensing reasons but it can be installed with winetricks to replace Mono, which is sometimes necessary for compatibility reasons.
Thanks!
What is happening?
Microsoft donated mono to the wine project
Yea I know. But I still can’t believe it.
Microsoft finally sees they can’t code.
Well that was unexpected
