"Is the development system for netduino cross platform?"
Yes although not as strait forward as using Windows. A quote from one of the Netduino developers says:
"While we work out MonoDevelop IDE integration, we've created a Netduino C# bootloader which will allow you to
manually compile your C# source on Mac/Linux...and then deploy your Netduino app via MicroSD card."
My plan was to borrow code from the C# adaptation by Dan Quigley N7HQ of some Lady Heather code, before discovering that M1DST had a working example running already.
I'm really looking forward to the day I can have a Netduino with Ethernet port and 4x20 OLED or VFD display on the front of my 2RU case that houses my Nortel/Trimble NTGS50AA.
Ideally it would feature:
NTP compatible time server.
Log a Lady Heather compatible file to the on-board MicroSD card.
RFC 2217 remote serial port over TCP.
Web interface.
Sam.
