Popfly in Moonlight

Posted By: Sarah Perez | Apr 18th @ 7:05 AM

Moonlight is a project designed to allow Linux computers the ability to run Silverlight applications. Just recently, blogger Daniele Muscetta installed Moonlight following these instructions, which apparently allowed her to get Popfly up-and-running on her Ubuntu installation, something that Popfly guy John Montgomery noticed here.

To learn more about Moonlight, check out the project homepage or this blog post. You can also see it in action here (video).

Hi Sarah, would you mind correcting the post to properly reflect my gender, please?
I know "Danielle" is a female name in many palces in the world -this isn't the firt and won't be the last time I got that mistaken - but in Italy "Daniele" is a male name... the equivalent of "Daniel" in the english-speaking world.
Thanks! Ciao!

When will this result in .NET application compatibility on Linux?

Actually, there's quite a bunch of things that already work rather well on modern linux distributions - I am talking of "things" written in C#, that run on MONO (http://www.mono-project.com/Main_Page).
The same developers that build Mono, are also making moonlight - that is: Silverlight for Linux clients.
