Too little, too late (imo). I'll think about it again once they have visual studio and all the good things running on *.nix.

It's too much of a pain to get anything to work with a .net project, and then deploy on anything other than IIS.

The URL of that link is a pretty surprising thing, in and of itself.

Parts of Microsoft have been using github for quite a while now:

https://github.com/msopentech https://github.com/Azure

The Azure SDK has been there since 2012.

I agree that even now it still seems kind of odd when Microsoft embraces open source technologies, and the company is very big so their support tends to be oddly lumpy (generally better among the groups working on products that are directly related to networking like ASP.NET, Azure, etc) but they've been on this path for quite a while now.

Too little? Biggest change for ASP.NET from release of ASP.NET! "Too much of pain" was the first (and last) thing I said when trying to configure ruby on ubuntu. Or tried to download some app and run it.

Scott Guthrie is amazing. He's behind all the open source projects. Some of them are even taking pull requests. Entity Framework, MVC, ASP.NET, etc are all popular and open source.

This just in, people who aren't impressed by the .NET stack still aren't and continue to not use it.

ASP.net vNext was specifically about this.

And you don't need VS to do .net development; check out monodevelop or xamarin studio (they're the same basic thing)
