What a great trip I had to Cambridge. Gonzalo, Loida, Miguel, y Maria Laura treated me so good. What hospitality! While at Cambridge, I had a chance to shake hands with Nat Friedman and almost managed to talk to Dan Winship, although Dan left for the day before I realized it was him (saw him briefly at the break room). I also managed to spend some time with Duncan.

As far as Mono in Windows, Miguel said a lot on his blog entry on the subject. The little todo list shown below, will be my focus during the weeks leading to my trip to BrainShare later this month:

* Create a new Gtk# 2.8.x Installers for .NET that will introduce support to .NET Framework 2.0 and VS 2005.

* Enhanced the functionality of the VSPrj2make Mono Add-in for Visual Studio .NET 2003 and introduce support for VS 2005.

* Will attempt work on prj2make and add preliminary/experimental support for VS 2005 C# projects.

Some important mono:: on Windows topics that Miguel and I discussed were the creation of a mono runitme installer and the relocation of many of the projects that I have been working on over the past year to the main mono SVN repository.

Finally, a big and exiting subject is the kick-off of a planning stage for the second Mono Development Conference that may be held in the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex later this year. More on the conference on the weeks to come.
