It may at some time be re-claimed by MS at any time. Until its really free its too much of a risk for me. I tend to do immersion stuff - get lost in code and architectures for months at a time but I cant commit myself to that at home. If someones paying me thats different but I cant look at my kids and see code if I think MS are going to charge me, or anyone else, for the privilege. I do hope de Icaza is right and it is 'free' cos it would be funny to see MS hoisted by their own petard but it seems just tainted enough to walk down the other side of the street. I can do C#/C#.Net/Nunit with my eyes shut but I need/want something similar under FLOSS and cant get close at the moment. Having said that I've been playing with QDevelop today and I get the impression its pretty good but theres something sort of slightly missing out there - probably a tutorial or two in the same century as the product! Anyone know how to fill a slot in a couple of clicks?
