+
+ Paolo reports today that the Mono JIT on the PowerPC was able

+ consumption).

+ href="http://forge.novell.com/modules/xfmod/community/?monocomm">Mono
+ Community</a>.

+
+@item Oct 13th: SPARC V9, HPPA, Internationalization, GdiPlus
+
+ Dick Porter has checked in our rewrite of the international
+ substrate in Mono that uses the <a
+ href="http://oss.software.ibm.com/icu/">International
+ Components for Unicode</a> library from IBM. This means that
+ we got CultureInfo support through the whole code base now.
+
+ Alexandre Pigolkine has checked-in the new implementation of
+ System.Drawing. We have now dropped the old implementation
+ with multiple-backends that we had, and replaced it with an
+ implementation that P/Invokes into GDI+. A GDI+
+ implementation on top of <a
+ href="http://www.cairographics.org">Cairo</a> is used on Unix
+ systems. This step vastly simplifies the development and
+ maintenance of System.Drawing.
+
+ There are plenty of updates to Mono as well, we encourage you
+ to read the <a
+ href="http://www.go-mono.com/monologue">Monologue</a> to keep
+ an eye on recent developments.
