They tried the "make the world a better place too".

Actually Miguel started the Gnome project, wrote Gnumeric, sponsored Evolution, etc.

Even Mono was once to be used in Linux and Gnome.

They were forced off Gnome, by valid license concerns, FUD, zealots and not few indiffrence.

What are they to do? Roll over and die?

I have nothing against Miguel and Mono. I just wanted to say that a product which is going to win the market, should be really open source and really free. People would choose PhoneGap for multi-platform mobile development over Mono.Touch because it has a friendlier license and leads to less risks.
