As I noted to you in private email, this is gnome on top of cygnome, not 
exactly the same thing.

It doesn't, but I'd trust Sun a whole lot more then Microsoft.  Not that 
I trust Sun, but let's look at history shall we?  Microsoft is well 
known for 'embrace and extend,' which is similar to what we are talking 
about.  The only difference is, they have a technology that's being 
implemented in open source.  All they have to do is tweek .NET a bit and 
it will break mono apps.
