Can someone put 2014 on this?

> we also launched a new web site that hosts the latest version of the .NET Reference Source, called http://sourceof.net

I think http://referencesource.microsoft.com/ might even be a little bit older.

Does anyone know if you're still allowed to contribute to ReactOS/Mono/WINE after reading this?

Yes, the code is MIT licensed. Check it on github: https://github.com/microsoft/referencesource

In fact, for the past couple releases mono has replaced a lot of its library code with MS's quite successfully.

Full disclosure - I run the mono team at Xamarin.

Thanks - and thank to you and the team for all your hard work. I just ran Hello World on Mono via dnx/dnu and my mind was blown. Who would have predicted Microsoft would be doing this in 2015?

It was alluded to that this change was coming back in May 2014 https://www.mail-archive.com/ozdotnet%40ozdotnet.com/msg1072... and then on Nov 2014 it landed -> https://www.mail-archive.com/ozdotnet@ozdotnet.com/msg11187....

Here's the trello board which is tracking the code replacement - https://trello.com/b/vRPTMfdz/net-framework-integration-into...

It depends. The reference source site code is MS-RSL (see the License link in the upper right).

Some of the source is additionally available under MIT from the github repository, but the reference site includes things that are not "open source" like WPF and Winforms.

I'd like to second the poster who said thanks for all your hard work.

It's pretty freakin' sweet to be able to develop my asp.net MVC sites in Monodevelop instead of VC. I really prefer KDE over Windows as a UI, and y'all let me work in Linux all the time now!
