InternetNews | at | by Mike
Novell is making it easier for Linux users to use content developed with Microsoft's Silverlight media framework.
The company today rolled out a new milestone release of Moonlight, its effort to bring Silverlight to Linux. The new Moonlight 2.0 beta adds critical new security and performance features to the release as it tracks Microsoft's ongoing development of Silverlight for Windows version 2 and 3.
Moonlight 1.0 officially debuted in February, while the first Moonlight 2 preview went public in May. With the Moonlight 2 beta, Novell is now declaring the release to be feature-complete, and the software now enters a bug-hunting and stability phase ahead of a general release.
