Q: What is the motivation for this project?
Actually, the idea came about because we're a bunch of old Java developers who ended up doing Microsoft work for several years. We had become accustomed to working with certain design pattterns such as Model-View-Controller (MVC) in Struts that we felt we could migrate to .NET. While we found certain things we were accustomed to like log4net and Nant, we felt there was still some work to be done before we felt comfortable in our new environment. While we're still Java developers at heart, we do certainly love some of the nice shiny features of the CLI and the .NET languages (well MC++ and C# anyway) and feel that the library is incredibly valuable making use of some of the benefits of the .NET framework that don't have analogies in the Java universe.
