Topic: silverlight availability

Just curious if there are any plans for Silverlight widgets to be available for the Chumby.

Re: silverlight availability

Silverlight itself is not available for Linux, which is the OS that the chumby uses.

There is a Silverlight workalike called "Mono" that is under development, however, it appears to be at least one generation behind.  There also appear to be a few open issues with regard to patent rights, etc.

Is it possible at all?
