&gt; My point here is that .NET is proprietary.  I don't doubt they will
&gt; continue to support it.  Point is, what happens down the road when .NET
&gt; and Mono are humming along fine and working so well together.  Then M$
&gt; makes a proprietary change to .NET that causes problems with mono?
&gt; They've done this before.
&gt; 
How does this differ from JAVA?
