Currently someone has ported more recent versions of Mono (Romain I think?), but MonoDevelop is somewhat out of date. I had patches to build MonoDevelop with Rolsyn but couldn't get the MonoDevelop github repos to work with FreeBSD ports so I gave up after multiple requests for help on both this mailing list and the FreeBSD forum. Other .Net things I'd like to see: - Ivan had some patches for kqueue issues, he passed them on to me but again, I have moved away from .net on FreeBSD - I would like to see a port of Pinta on FreeBSD (https://pinta-project.com/pintaproject/pinta/) because gimp makes me want to throw my computer - I once built and ran .Net Core and would like to see if that has progressed, perhaps put together a FreeBSD port for it. The ultimate goal in my mind is to update MonoDevelop to use .net Core - Porting and testing asp.net and MVC to FreeBSD - Testing the latest mono on FreeBSD CURRENT for ARM I had also at one point seen a possible business model helping clients get their .net software off of Windows to save $$$ and create resalable appliances, but that idea died on the vine. Ultimately, there are so many development options on FreeBSD, I moved to something that was better supported (lua), but I really really miss that big beautiful framework. I guess there's always Java, or Python, or Ruby... :( Cheers, Russ On Thu, Jun 16, 2016 at 9:07 AM, Mathieu Prevot wrote: > Hello, > > I would like to have an update about the community working on mono, and > maintaining the mono ports. > > This page was updated last in 2010: > http://www.mono-project.com/archived/monofreebsd/ > > I was reading the last 10 month archives, it seems not very active. > > Who is interesting by running mono / roslyn / c# on FreeBSD ? > Who is doing c# development on any platform ? > What are you platforms ?
