Re: [IBMiOSS] .NET support on IBM i (was Re: Visual Studio for Mac)

Hi, Kevin:

I followed your suggestion and opened a new RFE for ".NET support on IBM
i" -- see:

http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rfe/execute?use_case=viewRfe&CR_ID=98740

Everyone please review this RFE and if you like the idea, please vote for
it. :-)

All the best,

Mark S. Waterbury

FYI, Visual Studio for Mac is not the same as Visual Studio for
Windows.
It's essentially a rebranded version of Xamarin Studio, which was
already
available on Mac.

If you're interested in seeing .NET running on IBM i, I encourage you
to
open an RFE and get people to vote for it.

That's nice !!

Now the only place .Net won't run is IBM i.

@WakeUpIBMRochester you're not at war with Microsoft any more.

Make it happen and stop referring to Microsoft as "Other".
