Eleven Fifty Academy in Fishers is looking to change that as they’ve already launched, changed, and enhanced the careers of hundreds of Hoosiers, including Autumn Henderson.

Last November, Microsoft said that it would bring some of the core features of its .NET platform — which has traditionally been Windows-only — to Linux and Mac.

Version 4.0.0 of Mono, the FOSS implementation of the .NET Framework, has been released. This is the first release of Mono that replaces various components of Mono with code that was released by Microsoft under the MIT license. Microsoft itself is working towards .NET Core: a redistributable and re-imagined version of .NET, which has two code drops: CoreFX and CoreCLR.

The vendor has spent the past few years encouraging Visual Basic 6 programmers to migrate...

Now, the company is quietly retreating from a marketing strategy that some analysts say was a bad idea from the start. Part of the problem, they say, is that while Microsoft was adding the .NET (pronounced "dot-net") tag to its software products, many people were unable to figure out just what it was. The Redmond, Wash.-based software company is taking the .NET tag off Windows Server 2003, a key product to be released this spring. It also is evaluating the ubiquitous name's use...
