[Wine] Re: DotNet applications

[Christoph Schmid]

well, if dotnet would work on wine it would be a great improvement.
And a prove for the progress wine made in the last time.
I'm  a student of software engineering and have to work with .Net and
Visual Studio at the University.
Well, if there is a possibility to run this in wine (.net framework
would be the first great step towards running whole Visual Studio) it
would nearly eliminate my need for windows on the notebook.
Well. Sad thing that mono does not work. They are aiming on
compatibility with MS .et according to their homepage. 
In the past Winforms was the biggest part that did not work.
But this should have changed... Perhaps it would be a good idea to
inform the wine developers about this errors so they can try to track
and fix them.
Improve the quality of open software! ;)

greetings, 
Chris (Ge0rgy)
