#develop Beta 1 release available
Sharp Develop, an open-source IDE for developing .NET applications, has made its first 1.0 release candidate (Beta 1) available for download. Called "Fidalgo", the #develop team is calling for bug reports and general usage feedback as they enter "bugfix-only mode".
Not only is #develop an open-source development environment (allowing those who feel strongly about such things to avoid using Visual Studio), but it also serves as an interesting example--and one of the most complex--of WinForms programming available.
Read the announcement on the #develop home page.

Also MonoDevelop...
The Mono version of SharpDevelop has also had a recent release, Version 0.3 following on the heels of Mono Beta 1.
Check it all out at:
http://www.monodevelop.com/release_notes/0.3.html
http://www.go-mono.com/archive/beta1/beta1.html
If you've been following the progress of The Mono Project, then the announcement of Beta 1 is probably a bit of a surprise since they just had the Version 0.31 release about six weeks ago. It looks like they are closer to their Mono Roadmap than it appeared.
Now if I can just get the MonoDevelop source to build...I'd like to see how close they get the core SharpDevelop stuff to work in the Mono/GTK# environment.

VB.NET to C# Converter and vice versa
The beta 1 version "Fidalgo" has an awesome VB.NET to C# conversion utility (and vice versa for those interested) that comes with the new version. This is a better product than many if not all of the commercially available ones. You certainly can't beat the price! Its also got tons of great links to other open source .net projects like dotnet wiki and the like.
The tight integration with Nunit is also quite nice. Now if they just had a feature to autogenerate test code it would be the complete coupe. Their code completion for C# is great (not available for VB.NET) but they dont have integrated debugging.

any fans or users of Mono out there? do you know if it is possible to mix and match assemblies and runtime engines?
In other words, could I take the db2 managed provider from Mono, (packaged as a DLL) and run it on Windows and .NET Fx v1.1 ?
Could I take a managed library delivered by an arbitrary third party, and drop it onto a Mono/Redhat box and run my app ?

In theory, yes. I use Mono providers with MS.NET regularly and that works fine. The other way around usually works, but Mono is playing catch-up so you should do some testing.
Also, it's often better to compile the source using the respective target compilers rather than using the libraries directly.
