"Cross-platform .NET development is imminent, but the purpose, the feature set, and the platform support varies. We were curious about the development of the various open source implementations of Microsoft .NET's Common Language Runtime, so we talked to the key developers in charge of each of three CLI implementations—Mono, Rotor, and Portable .NET—to find out what exactly they've built, how they did it, and how they compare. What we found might surprise you."
"The approach that we take with treecc is similar to that used by yacc. A simple rule-based language is devised that is used to describe the intended behaviour declaratively. Embedded code is used to provide the specific implementation details. A translator then converts the input into source code that can be compiled in the usual fashion."
"Many people feel that flat UI look of web pages is desirable. Catering to this market, Ivar Lumi has written a library of flat controls.

"Are you starting work on a Windows Forms project and need that extra jump start? The Windows Forms development team is hosting a hands-on development lab on the Microsoft campus for companies who are actively starting Windows Forms work. If you are about to start a Windows Forms project or recently started a project, please apply to attend."
"This sample demonstrates how to create a Windows Forms application that registers itself as a desktop toolbar. The behavior of your desktop toolbar can exactly mimic that of the Windows Taskbar."
