Since Mono still seems to be going strong and seems to be one of the official platforms for F#, I'm not sure that something that happened seven years ago is necessarily great proof that they're smothering Mono.

It's proof that Microsoft's intentions towards Mono aren't dependable. They can (and have) changed dramatically, whenever Microsoft wants. Exactly how friendly do you think Microsoft will be if Mono stops being .NET's toehold in non-Microsoft mobile OSes?

Ahhh 2005? Com'on. Much has changed at MS these days. Except licensing. Which is a nightmare to figure out. But MS isn't the only company with that shame.

You're living in the past maan.
