[brlug-general] Mono book Re: Free Linux eBooks?

[John Hebert]

Hey Andrew,

Lemme know if you want to borrow it (still legal to share the hard copy...). Very useful book with lots of example code. May be a bit dated now, though.

One thing I've been considering is cross-platform system management using Mono, since the same code will run on both Linux and Windows. Deployment tools like  Ant/Nant could used to compile and deploy system changes to a mixed server environment. One code base, two operating systems. Kinda like Reese's Pieces.

John

I would be all over that book in a heartbeat.  Thanks, John.

Mono, and especially MonoDevelop now with drag-and-drop GTK# development, is finally becoming mature.  Cross Platform .Net.... here I come!!!!!!
