GNU Mono project

Mono is a GNU project which will focus on the basic components of .Net such as a C# compiler, a Common Language Runtime JIT (just-in-time) compiler, and all the class libraries that will be a part of .Net. The result will be that developers can create and run .Net applications on any platform which will support Mono (Windows, Unix variants).

The DotGNU Project

The DotGNU Project is really a meta-project that will consist of between ten and twenty subprojects. The main components of DotGNU are the DotGNU Platform and the DotGNU Virtual Identities system.
DotGNU will be a complete replacement for the .NET strategy - it will not be a Free Software implementation of .NET. While .NET has some very sound ideas, problems arise with its implementation, especially with the Authentication/Authorization systems which are centralized to Microsoft, and with Microsoft's vision for "web services". DotGNU will use a decentralized paradigm, no single company, server or entity will control authorization. Secondly DotGNU will emphasize security, it will use encryption wherever possible to keep user data secure and hidden.
