I haven't been able to find a reasonable justification of Mono team not working on WPF. What could be the possible reason? Especially when they've already implemented Silverlight.

See WPF on Mono? It is a matter of funding.

Didya check out the official site with the official page on the subject? "...because the project is too large and there has not been any serious interest from the community to make this effort move forward." |

Because a lot of developers are asking Why doesn't Mono implement WPF?, but nobody does the work. That sounds like a dick answer, but it isn't: Mono is a community-driven open source project – you are "the Mono team". (Of course, this is not really specific to Mono or WPF. It applies equally well to every other community project and every other feature request.) |

Mono are not implementing WPF (yet?), but they have an interesting project, XWT. They aim to provide a common API for building GUI with GTK (everywhere), WPF (on Windows) and Cocoa (on Mac). Of course, this applies not only to the GUI toolkit, but to other things as well that are platform dependant, e.g. background timers, process invocation. |
