This just brings up a new question. can we add "Java (tm)" (sic)
support to Pnet ?. The SUN Java implementation requires JNI support.
(remember M$ vs SUN Lawsuit).
The same goes for the VM support. So I guess Norbert's idea of
"SEE JVM Plugin" has lesser potential legal problems.
Anyway we would be better off having such an multi-pronged
approach. Also the Mono project is YA CLR, not a .NET replacement.
(IMHO that's why M$ doesn't see mono as a threat).
