Microsoft .NET for Linux?
1) Mono

2) Rotor (Done by MS)

3) Lets talk again next year....


May be MSSQL for Linux?

that could be in their plans to compete with MySQL

Then they will have to give it away and open source it. Neither of which I
see as a reality.

A free limited version maybe, like Oracle and IBM. Open source it? That
would be the end of MS as we know it.


All things considered, if you actually compare IBM DB2 Express-C to
SQL Server Express Edition and Oracle Express, it is not Limited in any
sense of the word. And DB2 integration with Visual Studio makes MS
SQL Server integration looks like a weak hack.
