What ? Xamarin is defacto Microsoft Xamarin, it's even integrated in to their domain and Xamarin Studio got rebranded to Visual Studio Mac.

Github is a separate issue, they can't rebrand without huge value loss.

I see the nitpicking continues.

Is the Xamarin brand still strong?

Yes.

Nothing else is important. It is clearly a separate brand which is OBVIOUSLY going to be integrated (otherwise why buy it?)

But it remains a differentiable entity with the power of Microsoft behind it.

Continue nitpicking.
