The Mono Project is a community initiative to develop a Free Software, GNU/Linux-based version of the Microsoft .NET development platform. Incorporating key .NET compliant components, including a C# compiler, a Common Language Runtime just-in-time compiler, and a full suite of class libraries, the Mono Project will enable developers to create .NET applications and run them on Windows or any Mono-supported platform, including GNU/Linux and Unix. The Mono Project is led by Ximian, the Free Software company co-founded by Miguel de Icaza, who has led GNU's GNOME desktop environment to great success. The URL for the project is http://www.go-mono.net.
