I run projects on .NET on Windows and in WO. .NET is simply horrible
even on Windows.
There is no OR layer...although we are promised on in
Whidbey...designed by former NeXT guys. The problem is that this is
going to embedded in the next release of SQL Server so no
portability...try using that on Linux or MacOS.
C# is a nice language....pretty much a direct copy of Java.
IIS deployment is nasty and still full of holes.
Visual Studio .NET is a great IDE and on a par probably with
Eclipse...superior to the WO Tools. It is a good job given the amount
of code requred vs a WO App.
Which persistence technique do you use today? Microsoft's recommend
SPs + data layer that you write each time?
Deployment. For a 'GUI based' environment there are simply too many
cludges and text files to edit. We encounter so many bugs with .NET
Javascript generation requiring special on-request only hot fixes.
Its not a viable platform in my opinion. We are seriously thinking
about dumping .NET all together.

I have been looking options for WO for some time and I have found many
options that I'm evaluating (I'm already certified J2EE developer),
but one that is at the top of my list is .Net on Linux/Unix/MacOS/etc.
With .Net on Linux/Unix/MacOS/etc you get many advantages, you have
access to the corporate accounts and the biggest market segment, you
are free to deploy in any platform, you have access to many
components, access to many resources, books, etc., etc., etc.
If you are interested on this kind of technology you can find in at:
