A .NET library works with any .NET language, not just boo but C# or VB.NET or the PHP compiler or IronPython or whatever.

Fredrik makes money off of supporting python software, and obviously feels threatened by anything he perceives as competition, such as .NET.

Although I've talked about Zend and SourceLabs very little here, I think they're very important in bringing LAMPish technologies to the enterprise for the reason you've mentioned. What I'm interested in seeing is whether the principles that drove the design and evolution of LAMP/friends will survive and continue to grow in that environment or if the business community will attempt to twist LAMPs roots in simplicity into more enterprise-like values.</p> I agree Bill.

Though I don't think this is necessary for all users of open source products, I think it will help the uptake from more risk-averse CIO types. This is good for OSS.</p> One thing I’ve noticed lately are companies (e.g. Source Labs) whose purpose in life is to verify the stability interoperability of particular OSS-based configurations.
