.NET Micro Framework

You might have heard it but things are shifting for .NET Micro Framework. It’s moving to the Developer Division at Microsoft with the intention to make it some form of open source. Microsoft is currently busy defining the rules of engagement. 

In the mean time many rumurs have spread all arround the internet. This makes people unceirtain if .NET Micro Framework has a future, and if it has, what kind of future.

Pavel Bansky, Jan Kucera and some other .NET Micro Framework users are now expressing their conceirns in this development and have written an open letter to Craig J. Mundie, the Chief Research & Strategy Officer involved with .NET Micro Framework.

You can read this letter here:
