After a grueling two weeks I have finally completed a first pass at the Mono 1.1.2 and Gtk# 1.9 Combined Installer for Win32.
Please read the email I sent yesterday to the list Mono-delvel-list
archives/public/mono-devel-list/2004-November/008830.html
THIS IS A PREVIEW RELEASE and may have more tweaking based on your feedback.
I am currently, working on some "Runtime improvements that will be very specific to Win32". These will be aimed at simplifiying application launching and coexistace between different versions of Mono installed on a Windows machine.
More to come in the next few days.
In the Linux front, I have been working with Ubuntu, SuSe 9.2 Professional and Novell Linux Desktop. My main computer for traveling is a Compaq Presario that is built like freaking truck and weighs about as much :)
This is an AMD 64 Athlon, 1 GB RAM and 60 GB hard disk that has an nVidia GForce 400 MX. I now have it configured With SuSe 9.2 Pro, NLD and Windows XP. Grub does all of the boot management. I am happy.
News about Paquito: I have not heard from him since the Falluja offensive started. As I tell friends and family, I have not heard from the Dept of the Army either -- so that is very good news.
I am so ready for IFLOSS in Puerto Rico. Kevin was telling me that I may become the Keynotes Speaker :)
Hi Paco!
It's funny you mention your laptop, that model has come down in price since you came to PR last May with your then-new Athlon64 laptop. I've been tempted to buy one, but it's too damn big and heavy!
After using my PowerBook G4 12-inch for about a year now, I think it is just the right size, and an IBM X31 or X40 is what I would buy if I wanted an Intel compatible box.
By the way, you rock, Mr. Keynote Speaker, sir! :-)
PS - Here's praying you get better news from Paquito soon.
