Re:Mono outpaces Java in Linux desktop development

Just tell me when it outpaces c++. How many mono apps are there? How many c++ apps? Mono has a really long way to go before it can seriously challenge C++/KDE. I hope not to be misunderstood, moving away from c++ is somewhat a good idea, but its much too early for statements like this, because how many java apps are there to be outpacet?.

On Linux, probably never. KDE/Qt development is really easy.

This just adds weight to what I've been saying all along: C# = The Java Killer. Also, there's more java on linux than you think. Hell, Android is a whole platform for java on Linux, which is the dumbest possible thing to do, which is why its failing miserably :-)
