Mono:FreeBSD (BSD#)
This is awesome.
The BSD# Project is devoted to porting and maintaining the Mono .NET framework for FreeBSD. The Mono framework consists of not only the Mono Runtime environment and compiler but the XSP web server for handling ASP.NET applications, the IKVM Java virtual machine for handling Java within the framework, and numerous data providers to provide common library functions in C# or integration with existing C libraries.
The BSD# project is hosted on Novell Forge (http://forge.novell.com). The project's CVS repository (http://forge.novell.com/modules/xfmod/cvs/cvsbrowse.php/bsd-sharp/) currently contains FreeBSD ports for all Mono packages released by Novell. It also includes ports for applications and libraries from third parties as well with the intent that they be integrated into the standard FreeBSD ports tree. The project aims to act as a central testing point for porting new releases from Novell, for introducing new applications, and for testing framework wide changes that will affect all applications that rely on Mono before they reach the FreeBSD ports tree.
