Monodevelop

It’s no big news I don’t like MonoDevelop.

Yes, I do use it, because there is no alternative in Linux, except for X-Develop (commercial).

I must agree that it is becoming a nice IDE in some aspects – debugger only, lol.

The debugger is the only thing keeping MD alive at this moments, everything else is just a few bug fixes, but almost no work in internals. Sadly the reason for this is the bad and stupid politics of his master tberman who in a recent chat told me that doing a managed GtkSourceView is a dumb thing…. I agree, but instead of just doing it or accepting some patches that helps improving it by now, why does he reject them?

There is so few active contributors to MD at this moment that I’m starting to think that he is really death.

Anyway, there seems to be hope in some heads, see this blog post.
