Microsoft maintains what is essentially the “real” version of Mono within their official .NET project. It is up to version 8.
The version of Mono represents by “The Mono Project” still targets .NET Framework ( stuck on version 4.x for years now ). Microsoft does not care about the real version, nevermind the Open Source replica.
What Microsoft is “donating” is pure legacy. It is a good fit for Wine though.
What is happening?
Microsoft donated mono to the wine project
Yea I know. But I still can’t believe it.
Microsoft finally sees they can’t code.
No.
