Next Saturday, August 18, I will be at MUNCYT in La Coruña, with a talk on how to take brain wave readings with low-cost Electroencephalograms (EEG).  I will present the Theeg project and then Jose Angel Mateo will give a presentation on the DotNetClub.

Agenda

10:00-10:15 Presentation of the event and speakers. 10:15-11:00 ‘Theeg: Reading other people’s minds’ Theoretical session. 11:00-11:45 ‘Theeg: Reading other people’s minds’ Practical session. 11:45-12:00 Coffee break

12:00-12:45 ‘IEEE-UNED Microsoft DotNet Club’. 12:45-13:00 Farewell and closing.

It is usual that after several years the space forecasts in a virtual machine are exceeded, in many cases because the project for which it has been destined is being a success and requires a larger storage size. What in principle may be a joy, also involves extra effort, since if the machine is in production, and we have more users, it means that we cannot turn off the machine for an hour to perform maintenance tasks. Thanks to XEN we can change the virtual hard disk without having excessive problems

Secure SHell FileSystem (SSHFS) is a file system for Linux (and other operating systems with a FUSE implementation, such as Mac OS X), capable of displaying files on a remote system as if it were just another folder on your computer using secure access.

In this way, a user can work on a series of files on another computer as if it were in local mode. For its operation, only the installation of an SSH server is necessary on the remote machine. Once it is perfectly configured on the local machine, we proceed to the SSHFS installation:

noVNC is a VNC client implemented using HTML 5 technologies, specifically Canvas and WebSockets (“wss://’ supports encryption). noVNC is licensed under the LGPLv3.

Browser requirements for noVNC

-   HTML5 Canvas: Most browsers have had a lot of development in this regard for quite some time. The last one to join has been Internet Explorer 9 (finally).

-   HTML5 WebSockets: For browsers that have not incorporated WebSockets support, the project includes web-socket-js, a WebSockets emulator with Adobe Flash.

It may be the case that, for example, in a server migration, you have to concatenate machines, which implies that the users must continue to exist on both servers, but this time on a single machine. This implies that we must change the UID and GID of each of them (at least on one machine) to avoid major problems.

One of the initial trends is to change the identifiers directly in the /etc/passwd files or in the /etc/group, a serious mistake, since for example the files in which said user has permission will be lost, leaving the previous identifier.

Auditfi has exceeded 1000 downloads, and as a thank you there is another little gift, and this is the total release of the code so that everyone can study it, and above all improve it. There are many more networks that can be included using patterns, dictionary or even brute force.

Project URL

https://github.com/Thempra/Auditfi

 

It has been located in the GitHub repositories, to manage it you can do it through Eclipse with the EGit plugin. As you can see, it is a very simple and easy-to-understand application. I hope you are encouraged to improve the project.

Backtrack is a LiveCD distribution, as well as an installable one, that compiles a complete range of utilities to audit various systems. Although it is well known for being prepared for auditing Wi-Fi networks, it is more interesting to review the rest of the tools it offers us to work with all technologies. Taking advantage of the fact that Backtrack 5 R1 has just been published, I present to you the Mexican Organization of Ethical Hackers that has published a simple course to get started in understanding this tool, very basic, but useful for those who want to enter this world.

To do good as well as to do evil, a Wi-Fi network scanner is almost essential, and although the shell attracts a lot, seeing moving colors has attracted us all since childhood.

inSSIDer is a beautiful, simple scanner, although with a technical visualization, and above all multiplatform.

When setting up a Wi-Fi network, whether your home or a more extensive one, it is advisable to view the frequency spectrum that covers said area. And since today our eyes are not capable of switching to Wi-Fi mode, with this program we can make the task easier in a graphic and simple way.

A few weeks ago, my colleague Craswer and I bet how easy it would be to implement the security flaw in the Neikokz generators, on the Jazztel and Telefonica or Movistar routers, and in less than an hour, we obtained the result that we present to you. Now, by popular request we have decided to upload it to the Market.

Although there are several programs to audit the security of your router, here we leave you the Auditfi (Wifi Audit**) which is not only prettier, “the best”, but we accept your feedback to improve it based on your needs.

The Educational Materials Development Awards 2011 has been announced for yet another year, in order to stimulate and recognize the work of teachers and other people and institutions in the production of resources based on information and communication technologies. The call for these Awards favors the creation of multimedia resources of proven didactic effectiveness, accessible

As a novelty, this year the types and modalities of participation are modified. It is also determined that the award-winning materials will be published under a type of Creative Commons license,

Although Libreoffice is receiving a big push lately from both Oracle and IBM with the transfer of Symphony, it must be recognized that the ribbons of Ms Office 2007 continue to be of great usability, along with other correction features, and obviously compatibility with docx. Therefore, on certain occasions its use is recommended.

In this case we are going to see how to run it from Debian without excessive problems. First we update to the latest version of Wine

There are thousands of ways to send an email from the Linux shell, but in this case we are going to explain how to do it using msmtp, something more complex than other ways, but useful in certain situations.

To do this we edit the msmtp file

#nano ~/.msmtprc

We are going to configure a GMail account, although it is also possible to do this with our SMTP server. We copy the following text

An escalation of privileges is when a user with limited permissions is able, through some security flaw, to elevate their role until they have more capabilities in the execution of their code, in this case this case reaches the root superuser.

Of the two possible codes, the second accompanies some simple instructions on how to “do evil” to an Android device, from this moment the device is compromised. Imagine this, for example, in an application of dubious origin that you install from the Market, it could obtain and send all your information. Or looking on the bright side, a more open gap to be able to root all versions of Android

When we find ourselves in a situation of servers in production, it is advisable from time to time to perform a complete backup of the machine on certain specific servers, or we simply want to move said machine to another system but we cannot do it in a traditional way. Next we are going to see a technique in which it is not necessary to turn off the virtual machine, and continue providing service without noticing excessive deterioration of the service, or its crash.

Although we have thousands of lines of code to be able to generate a PDF, on certain occasions, it is necessary for us to generate a document to be edited later, in this case the easiest thing is to do it with an RTF document.

According to Wikipedia:

Rich Text Format (often abbreviated as RTF) is a computer file format developed by Microsoft in 1987 for cross-platform document exchange. Most word processors are capable of reading and writing RTF documents.1

It is now official, and Meego 1.1 can be downloaded, with the expected new features for a wide variety of platforms, running on x86 and ARM, and renewed support for Multitouch devices. It seems that the project, far from dying, is beginning to have good movement, they are already preparing the next version 1.2 for next April. And if you happen to be near Dublin from the 15th-17th of this month of November, you will be able to attend the http://conference2010.meego.com/

Impressive activities of these two Italian brothers, Achille and Giovanni Battista Judica Cordiglia, authentic hackers of the airwaves, who managed to bring out the colors of NASA and put the Russian space race in compromising situations.

What would be the equivalent of these investigations today?

It is not strange that when sizing a virtual machine we have certain project specifications which change over time, and the need to increase disk space may be essential.

At first glance it may seem like a tedious task and you may start to tremble at the possible loss of data, but after a good prayer, a strong coffee and a win these fears disappear, leaving behind some simple steps described below.

Recovering old and very useful tutorials for those of us who play with servers, we are going to review how to create SSH keys so as not to have to write the password when authenticating against the server.

First we must be clear about what we are going to do, since applying this configuration would imply that a malicious user with access to your console could access the remote machine. It is not advisable to do this with the root user, but rather with one with few privileges to avoid scares.

For many of us who are used to developing with Frameworks, either commercial or created by yourself, when you are faced with a bareback language it can be a somewhat slow and tedious experience. In my new journey with PHP and after evaluating others like Symfony, for simplicity and security we have decided to use CakePHP

CakePHP is a powerful framework for creating portals in PHP, with great versatility when changing between databases, some of its most notable features being those that I indicate below:

A few days ago, Luis Molina informed me of the new launch of his code generator, completely renewed and with more energy than ever, it has also been renamed, its new name is ….. MyWay.

MyWay is a generator made in C#, capable of facilitating your task by giving you the work of an entire morning or even days, in seconds, not only for projects in C# but also Visual Basic .NET, and even the possibility of creating your own templates so they work in other programming languages. There are also different possibilities of connecting to various Databases.

I was somewhat curious this morning about the Android code for x86 platforms, and without a doubt I have had no better option than to compile it myself to see exactly what type of interface and applications I was getting based on what exists in the official repository.

Below I leave you the simple steps to carry out this action, the result is a somewhat slow operating system, but it can probably be solved by adjusting some parameters, I will inform you about the issue.

     Are you an expert in desktop virtualization? Well, you are in luck, since the beta has been opened to be able to certify you under Windows Server 2008 R2.

71-669 TS: Windows ® Server 2008 R2, Desktop Virtualization 
http://www.microsoft.com/learning/en/us/exam.aspx?ID=70-669

     Access to this exam is limited, since it is BETA, and will serve to improve the experience for future certificates.  To do this you have to use your “MSL SME” in Connect (http://connect.microsoft.com/site862  ), create your “SME profile”, or update it to be sure that one of your interests is Virtualization. Next March 1st at 9 a.m. on the east coast of the United States, you will be able to register and participate in this exam.

    Since several colleagues have told me about it lately, I have decided to expand an old post, and leave, as a reminder, this post on how to leave via an internet connection other than the one you are using on your computer.

Basically what we are going to do is the following:

OurPC ==> (Internet Provider X) ==> SSH SERVER ==> (Internet Provider Y)

The idea is, if for example we have a blocked connection, or we want to load a website from the office as if we were a client, or simply change IP. What we must do is generate a tunnel which takes us directly to the exit point and from local connect via proxy to this tunnel.

   One of the many techniques to learn a programming language or technology is to read, read, read and read, both code and books. Finding books is as simple as going to Amazon and placing an order.

   Regarding the code, you only need to go around and around until you find the necessary lines. Here are some links that you may find interesting to start making the first applications:

• Development guide (http://developer.android.com/guide/index.html)

   When dealing with unstable or experimental distributions, in certain updates it is possible that the keyboard is not configured correctly, losing the possibility of including signs entered using “Alt Gr” or even accent marks. It may happen that when trying to configure it from “gnome-keyboard-properties” we get the feeling that it doesn’t pay attention to us.

   The problem lies in a bad initial configuration of the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf in the InputDevice section, since we did not assign the variant, the correct configuration would be:

INSTALLING IDE AND SDK

First we must have the necessary packages properly configured to run java

apt-get install sun-java6-bin ia32-libs

Download Eclipse from for example here.

http://eclipsemirror.yoxos.com/eclipse.org/technology/epp/downloads/release/ganymede/SR2/eclipse-jee-ganymede-SR2-linux-gtk.tar.gz

Unzip and run eclipse. In the “Help / Software Updates…” menu we select the “Available Software” tab and add as a site:

http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/

We download and unzip the SDKs for development

http://dl.google.com/android/android-sdk-linux_x86-1.5_r2.zip

From eclipse we configure the SDK in “Windows \ Preferences” in the Android section we write the path where the previous downloaded file has been unzipped. Next we will add the necessary targets to run our compiled application.

I had this tutorial among my documentation and when I found it I decided to publish it in case anyone is now starting with this fabulous little gadget, it is simply a few simple steps to be able to work with the Arduino. We are going to carry out the entire process from Debian, but it is applicable with certain tweaks to almost all distributions. The first thing is to download it from its official website, currently the latest version is 0015, and save it in a suitable place.

In my latest experiments with J2ME I have found that the font classes ( javax.microedition.lcdui.Font ) are quite short to obtain a fairly nice design.

It is based on three types (FACE_MONOSPACE, FACE_PROPORTIONAL, FACE_SYSTEM), three styles (STYLE_BOLD, STYLE_ITALIC, STYLE_PLAIN, STYLE_UNDERLINED) and three sizes (SIZE_LARGE, SIZE_MEDIUM,SIZE_SMALL) . This today is surpassed even by any Web editor.

We should not despair or think that  ….. “Java is shabby and ugly” ….. since this depends more on the capabilities of the developer/designer than on the language itself that we are dealing with. That’s why the guys at 59Pixels have released a 59Fonts library, capable of saving us a lot of headaches.

I had been hearing about the simplicity of the WiiMoteLib for a while, but since I hadn’t put the Wii through my hands I hadn’t been able to touch them, I finally have the WiiMote at home, and obviously I had to start messing around. This is a simple code on how to connect and take some accelerometer readings, ideal for getting into the use of this device.

First we connect with any program Bluetooth device manager, to the WiiMote by pressing buttons 1 and 2 at the same time, and we connect it as a mouse, human interface, HID, … or whatever your manager calls it.

What better thing can you do on a Saturday morning than to try the new antenna that has arrived, it is a 24 db eRize. The project has been proposed to link a town 12.9 km away in a straight line with the UCLM Wi-Fi network, obviously with a stable connection. A few years ago we already achieved something similar, but against a high-rise building.

We left early for the specific place and as the weather forecast indicated, fog made vision extremely difficult, to the point that it was more of a trial, error and intuition type to achieve the objective.

Sometimes it is necessary for us to bypass a firewall to perform certain tasks. Usually because we have left work pending and we intend to get home and continue with the task. Unfortunately, today not all companies agree with teleworking, nor do they have their systems prepared for it, this means that we have to find tricks to access our machine.

First, a hole must be opened to establish communications from a PC inside the firewall to another PC, with an ssh server,

Depending on the network topology necessary in each situation, it is possible to need a proxy or an HTTP request balancer, it is not necessary to have millions of requests for such a need, it can simply be because there are several web servers (IIS, Apache, Lighthttpd, …) and the intention is to hide this topology from the client by launching everything on port 80.

To do this we will configure a server that receives the requests and redirects them to the corresponding computer. First from Apache 2 the proxy module must be enabled, in Debian for example it would be:

So that we can generate PDF documents with the ease that C# gives us for both our desktop and Web applications. With such interesting features as:

• Create PDF documents at runtime with .NET
• Easy compression of the object model for document composition
• Ability to draw on a PDF page, a window or a printer
• Modify, merge or split PDF file
• Images with transparency (color mask, monochrome mask, alpha mask)
• New conception, starting from scratch and written entirely in C#
• Compatibility with .NET graphing classes
• Includes high-level MigraDoc Lite with text layers (you can use both PDFsharp and MigraDoc Lite in a single document)

And lots of examples from here. Like this “Hello World”:

Lately I’ve been experimenting with my s200, until I finally got it. Well, rather, the cracks working on the linwizard project have achieved it, given the similarities of the HTC Wizard with the Prophet we can perfectly run the assembled kernel from one to the other.

We have been able to run the command line for a long time, but the first graphical environments such as GPE, Opie, OpenMoko and even Android are already beginning to move.

    We have applied the commands with which the hardware part works, and restructured a large part of the DLLs to be able to expand them (repository), we will soon publish a class diagram for a better understanding.

Here we publish the video of the version presented in the I CLM SL Contest, so you will see the main developer of the hardware part, who has not been able to attend due to an operation (we hope you get better).

I am writing to you on-site, after having made the presentation and enjoying the workshops (Joomla, Security, Xen, PyGames) that the organization has prepared for us.

 Given the amount of emails lately with desire and intentions to join the project, we are forced to activate the mailing list, to sign up you simply have to go to the following email address:

https://forja.rediris.es/mailman/listinfo/csl2-thoro-commits

To send information, questions, ideas, …. you simply have to write to:

Here is a screenshot of the initial interface that controls the ThoRo:

   Simply comment that the current interface is not the most important thing, but rather the SDKs, which provide support so that anyone with minimal programming knowledge can carry out any type of automation.

//We declare our game 

    ThoRo robot = new ThoRo() ;

//We send you the desired orders 

    robot.Go(); 

    robot.Back(); 

    robot.Right();

    robot.Left(); 

  You see that with simple instructions like those after having added the attached library, you can have at your command a machine to “dominate the world”, heh, heh,…

We leave you the first images of the initial Beta and how our Thorete reacts, in the next few days the first version of the SDK will be released for easy development of it

We hope you like it. Who wants one?? ;)

    Taking advantage of the possibilities of virtualization, we have created a virtual machine for VMWARE Server with all the needs to work on the project, from the MonoDevelop environment to a mips compiler.

    It is a Debian SID, the root password is “mono”, so you can use it for whatever you want, even as an OS. alternative.

 You can download it here.

 We present the scheme (in very broad strokes) that we are following in the development of the project

 And the communication protocol chosen will be the same for the <–> core interface as for the <–> arduino core. In this way we simplify possible misunderstandings, this being the following:

 * X Y # 

• X is the device number to send the devices to.
• Y data sent to the device.

 Every command will be followed in response mode by the receiver by a new command that will ensure its reception, in this case “ACK”

I am the greatest defender of competition, both for my enemy and for me, basically because this implies that neither of us will stay asleep and we will advance technology, with the end user always being the greatest beneficiary. To this day Windows Mobile is the undisputed leader in mobile devices, but little by little rivals are being born that are not exactly something we should rule out (IPhone, Android, …..). Well, a reality is OpenMoko (it seems to me that there are not many Spanish speakers in the project ;) ).

    As we have already said on previous occasions, if we only want to develop with the But if what we are interested in is putting a server into production, we already have to configure our Apache so that it can launch the mod_mono module and thus run our .NET web applications under GNU/Linux.

    Although part of the free world tries to make a simple assembly of this type of servers difficult, below we are going to simplify this installation on Red Hat Enterprise Linux as much as possible. 

    We are used to compiling our software against x86 systems, but… what happens when we want to run our software on other architectures? Basically, with a mere change of compiler if we have followed the POSIX, directives and little else we will be able to migrate our applications to the system we want.

  For example, devices like the fonera, the Linksys WRT54GL, the ASUS WL500G, …… have this type of processor and if we want to compile against them we only have to follow the following simple steps:

   After a month of long work among a group of people carefully chosen to be able to reach the maximum possible number of people, we conclude the first of many subsequent ones that we make use of our selected ones.

Summary of conclusions:

• Different modes of work:

• Totally independent of the human being.

• Controlled by the user (remote control).

• “Learn …………. with Thoro” mode.

• Open for new possibilities.

• You must respect Asimov’s three laws of robotics

   We started this new Blog to publish all the developments of the ThoRo Project, so that you are informed and participate in it, either developing, playing or simply giving ideas.

What is ThoRo?

   Thoro will be your pet tomorrow, with whom you can play, spend time, even bring you your favorite “soda.”

   It is based on a MIPS processor, and thanks to its fully modular design, new functionalities can be adapted to it.

The schedule of the next Mono Summit 2007 has been published, which this year will be held in Madrid:

You can register now.

Even if it is for PHP and MySQL, here is a bit of SPAM:

http://www.1and1.es/

Today you saturated the switchboard, you’ll see….

An easy way to send information about your association’s events to everyone who walks through your door, spam all your neighbors, and a thousand other ways to use this system.

This technology is based on sending text, images, applications, melodies, ….. indiscriminately to anyone within the coverage field of the Bluetooth antenna (approx. 20-40 meters).

I have chosen Debian to mount it, although I suppose that in Ubuntu it is similar. Also compatible with other distros. First (with the Bluetooth plug inserted and configured) we make sure we have all the necessary library and software dependencies:

C.I.S.A.R. and Ubiquiti Networks have managed to send information from Sardinia to central Italy through a 5 GHz Wi-Fi network.

Wireless connections are, without a doubt, the future of the Internet and every so often new advances appear that seem to confirm this situation. Although there are currently certain barriers that seem to prevent its use on a global level, numerous researchers are working to try to solve these problems.

Free software is not just a bunch of crazy people, who do not go beyond throwing command lines, but communities of restless minds, and since .NET is “the first great framework” and is a good product, the community has been created around it. Now we go a little beyond the framework, entering the life that is born near it.

Given the power that .NET gives us, tools are born around it to continue complementing it, of which we should also be very knowledgeable (at least of some).

Although Apple has not decided to release the SDKs for the iPhone, the strength of the developer (or stubbornness) is stronger. Mr. Peter Bartok has launched a library in .NET for access to the file system of the iPhone, this is the Apple project.

Characteristics

• Creation/Deletion/Renaming of directories
• Read/Write/Delete/Rename file
• Connect/Disconnect Events
• Windows help file (via Sandcastle)
• GUI application example (available on the download page.

Or from SVN:

Due to the needs of a new project, I have been involved in the need to establish a telnet connection, so since we start investigating we do it from a Pocket PC, although the code I present is independent of the device, even Mono.

After reviewing several dotnettelnet type libraries, I opted for Minimalistic Telnet, basically because it was more adapted to my needs and it is much clearer what we intend to do at the learning level.

I don’t like to put the link directly and leave, but in this case I have to apply that when you have nothing better to say than your interlocutor, it is better to keep quiet and listen to him, so at least if you don’t learn you will let others learn.

That’s why I present to you, fresh out of the oven, a tutorial to carry out these migrations:

http://www.mono-project.com/Guide:_Porting_Winforms_Applications

Continuing with the development of TheWeather, as I already explained in the previous article   it is an application developed in GTK# with MonoDevelop, in this version I have corrected multiple bugs, autotools have been included, and adapted the project for Monodevelop 0.13.1 .

But the main novelty is that it is accessible from Google Subversion, and the group is set up for anyone who dares to convert this mini-application that started as a demo, into a serious idea.

When a project begins to have a size, or more than one person wants to work on it, the use of some type of control over the development becomes indispensable. Who did what?? where have you changed this?? When did you change the other thing? What have you done so that this does not work?? At that moment is when the need arises to install a version control system.

Let’s review the possible candidates:

Last Friday I had the pleasure of being with the people of Imaginatica in Seville, thanks to the invitation from the IEEEsb of Seville, the truth is that they were a couple of interesting days, and to thank all the people of Seville for their welcome. Without forgetting those handymen who worked so hard at the WalkingBug workshop.

And as some attendees asked me, here I publish the presentations of the talk, to see if they get a little excited and join the SeWi project that is so close to them. And for others to make this initiative their own and set up their own network in their locality. Presentation: odp or pdf

IBM together with Novell and Mainsoft, have launched a new and interesting contest, you simply need to take applications in ASP.NET 2.0 and migrate them to Mono, Mainsoft’s Grasshopper 2.0 Technology Preview, Ruby, PHP, …. (I’ll stick with the first option which is going to be the easiest, juas, juas, ….).

The prize is a WII, and if you are a Windows developer, even a virtual machine kit is made available to you to compete.

This afternoon I compiled the latest version directly from the SVN of Monodevelop, and after playing with the latest features, I decided to put together a small application to show how it works under this environment.

This is a development under Mono + Gtk#, without having to create an entire tableau, since with the Fixed container we are allowed to drag them inside the panel, as if it were a Grid, and that is why I have reprogrammed this application again. To obtain the data we use a Webservice showing the weather for each city in real time.

New distribution for system audits and also national!! It is one more step from the offspring of many others such as Auditor, iWhax, BackTracks, … but with the advantage of the latest drivers for Wi-Fi cards, with the possibility of injecting traffic into the typical Intel ones on laptops.

Apart from the classic tools that we had in its predecessors, a notable novelty in the software part is the script that can be started directly from the menu, from which we continue with a wizard of the type… shall we scan?? Who do we attack? How do you want us to give him his hair??? I give you the key? All this by simply selecting option 1,2,3, …. from the menu and clicking “Enter”. Not only that but to the point of being able to disconnect others from the wireless network.

These guys from Mono are non-stop, after having achieved full compatibility with the .NET 2.0 framework with version 1.2, they continue forward with the possibility of compiling within our favorite IDE. The truth is that this monster tool like VS2005 can do everything, and they have created an Add-in for this situation.

First with Gtk# Installer for .NET Framework Runtime with which we can have references to libraries such as

	* Mono.Cairo.dll
	* Mono.GetOptions.dll
	* Mono.Posix.dll
	* Mono.Security.dll
	* Novell.Directory.Ldap.dll

But it’s not over yet, we also have Mono Combined Experimental Installer which is the previous version of Gtk# but together with the Mono framework and the Add-in, you directly compile with VS!!

For those who do not know it XNA is the technology that Microsoft has released for the development of video games, facilitating the task with respect to the hard work that programming with DirectX meant. In this way, with a few minor modifications, the game will be compatible for both PC and XBOX 360.

Now let’s think… Would it be possible to bring it to the PS3? PS3 runs like Linux operating systems, there are even several HowTo on how to make it run Fedora, if we install Mono 1.2 on it we achieve full compatibility with all software that attacks Microsoft’s Framework 2.0, we are doing well, apparently we have just set up this console as a desktop machine, well one more step…… Mono.Xna !!!

Although I know that the news is a few weeks old, I can’t resist starting my adventures in the world of Blogs with something as beautiful as this pact that no one trusts. On the other hand, it gives me so much hope, given my desire to unite engineers (people who engineer, not necessarily graduates) under the same roof and that there are no Taliban, no dark side, or the like… (sniff, sniff, what an idealist I have become).

Are we going to have WPF also in Mono? of course, those responsible, the project Olive, who will be in charge of the implementation of:

• Workflow APIs
• System.Query
• System.Xml.XLinq
• PresentationFramework and WindowsBase (only XAML support)

The first Previews/Beta versions will be released alongside the 2.2 version of Mono, along with other juicy features such as Windows.Forms 2.0. And the current status of the project can be consulted in its SVN at the same time as it can be downloaded.
