Cabbage? How about a lot of praise instead? Because that's what I'd throw at you guys for doing what you're doing with .NET. I'm a .NET programmer by day, and Linux-fan (and user) by night, and I honestly can't wait until I can run an asp.net based mvc website on my Linux-based server (running Apache; I know it's not impossible now but it's not quite fully there yet, or supported by MS), and thanks to your efforts, that now feels like something that's maybe actually going to happen the way I hope it will. So huge thanks from me!
The only thing missing for the non-emacs only users is Visual Studio for Linux... Even if it's not open source... Cue cabbage from Stallman and GNU-Onlyists.
