<p><strong><a href="http://tirania.org/blog/archive/2009/Jul-06.html">From Microsoft: C# and CLI under the Community Promise</a></strong></p> Microsoft’s assurance that it won’t “assert its Necessary Claims” against alternative (including open source) implementations of the ECMA C# and CLR specifications. The promise doesn’t cover implementations of .NET, WinForms etc- so the Mono team have announced they will be splitting their project in to two packages—a safe, ECMA based package and a package containing everything else. <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/aspdotnet">aspdotnet</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/cli">cli</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/csharp">csharp</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/ecma">ecma</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/microsoft">microsoft</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/miguel-de-icaza">miguel-de-icaza</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/mono">mono</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/open-source">open-source</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/patents">patents</a></p>
