[LUGSB] How's C#/GTK# looking?

The advantage to rewriting portions of your applications is that you won't
have to deal with unstable and incomplete code that isn't yours.  Even if
you make it work in Mono now, there is a good chance that some new feature
will come along that works in VS.net, but not Mono (or only sort of works)
and that will make things very frustrating.

This is a similar argument to the one I would use against porting using
WINE.

Either way, good luck. :)

Sorry if this has been discussed before (I know it was, to some extent,
recently).  Does anybody know which places on campus have WiFi access?
Also, do they have open access, or they use WEP?
