I tested the new Android support in Visual Studio today. It looks quite nice. It allows Visual Studio to open an existing Android project and compile it using non-MS tools. (the same tools Android Studio uses)
Syntax highlighting is there for Java and debugging is supported too. It was just a quick test. I was having trouble installing Hyper-V so I couldn't run the emulator.
In theory it will let me create a single solution that targets Windows, Android, Linux, iOS, ASP.NET, etc
The downside is that each device uses different technologies (unless you want to buy Xamarin for C#). Of course, each platform could connect to a common web service (i.e. a Hybrid app).

I know someone who use to live here who got on the Xamarian bandwagon. They loved it because you code in one language for a mobile device and it makes the substitutions for all other platforms as you compile for them.
I never got into it. Cost was 500 or so as I remember.

INDIE: $25 / month BUSINESS: $999 / year ENTERPRISE $1899 / year
Indie does not include Visual Studio Integration! You have to use Xamarin Studio.
Why open source .NET?
Why open source ASP.NET and implement OWIN (in the form of 'Katana') and other technologies so it can be decoupled from IIS and used on any platform with any web server?
Because all this is regarded as good business strategy by Microsoft who are still in business to make a profit (the evil bastards etc).
So as long as it's good for them and they do it properly so that it's good for the community then everyone's a winner. I'd far rather use C# on other platforms than Windows going forward than I would Java, that's for certain.

Exactly.

I did a quick look, but it wasn't mentioned in the article Stephen posted. What is the licensing for .Net? Being open source doesn't mean jack if it isn't also licensed in an open manner.

Ed,
It is under the MIT License according to this.

It is worth noting that .NET Core != the .NET Framework. It is just essentially at the moment (as far as I can tell) a FOSS implementation of the Common Language Runtime.
FWIW here's Rick Strahl's commentary on the .Net Core release.

"If you plan on using the .NET Core runtime, you'll be using a stripped down version of .NET that has the lowest common denominator needed to run on multiple platforms. That means a lot of stuff that was in full framework just won't be there. What that is exactly is not always so obvious. All platform specific Windows features are obviously not there, but there will be plenty of other stuff too."

I thought it was just me? My first impression of core is what we throw away after eating an apple.
"Hopefully we'll see Semver versioning for ASP.NET Core and .NET Core going forward instead of the crazy version schemes that like .NET 3.5 running on framework 2 or version 4.5.x that in-place replaces version 4. According to Microsoft folks ASP.NET Core will also be search engine friendly and provide a differentiator from previous ASP.NET versions when searching for support content."
