Re: ActiveX vs (GNU Mono and DotGNU)

ActiveX and .NET are two very different things. There isn't some race between KDE's ActiveX support and GNU Mono. AFAIK, KDE has *no* support for anything resembling .NET, and there are not plans for it. This would put KDE behind GNOME in that sense.

Actually, AFAIK, Mono isn't just a UI, but a CLI Runtime Environment and C# compiler. Thus, both GNOME and KDE can take advantage of Mono.
As far as the ActiveX vs. Mono comparison goes, I think the poster was pointing out the KDE people just finished a major MS compatiblity project while the Mono people are saying they might be part way there [on an MS compatiblity project] by the end of the year.
