I'll be working on a large project that needs some pretty complex logic piece inside some embedded hardware (based on XScale).
I started thinking of using Java but now I'm inclined to use Mono instead.
The main reason, beyond my personal preferences as I've been a Mono Hacker for years now, is that I need a royalty free solution and, AFAIK, GNU Classpath and open/free JVMs aren't complete enough for what I need to do, that would require something like Tomcat 5 + iText + some free implementation of Secure XML Web Services.

Something to check and find what is good to port to a Mono-based agent architeture. I'm just thinking if I'll stick to my dear C# or will give Charming Boo (a new language, yet to be unwrapped) a chance on it.
