Well, this is surprising isn't it? Microsoft are handing over the Mono Project to the Wine developers with a thank you note.

    dotnet is now a multiplatform framework itself. Do they still need mono?

      Is mono not the .net framework version? .net core has always been multi platform, but is not compatible with .net framework apps. So any .net apps built against 3.5 or 4.x would still need to use mono.

        It is the .net framework version. I’m not sure mono is used in anything but Xamarin and a handful of gnome apps. Xamarin has a clear upgrade path to MAUI but not without some effort and the risk of missing nugets, I did it on a small app once. This isn’t super useful.
