I poke in on Mono from time to time to see what's new there, and I probably don't do it enough. It seems like every time I show up they've finished what they were doing previously and a rolling into a host of other new things. These guys are freakin' rock stars at this stuff. In light of the fact that Java's future has a lot of people flummoxed, it might be interesting to see if there's increased entry into Mono. Are there any good general numbers on the type of use Mono is getting these days? I'd never expect to see some kind of mass exodus from Java or the JVM, but all these new language features and paradigms going into mono are just SO COOL. In the face of how long it took Java 7 to get rolling, Mono seems incredibly nimble to me, but at the same time it also doesn't have that rock solid feel that I get when I think about developing on the JVM. Mad props to these guys, the just never seem to get tired.
