Hi Bill,

Top posting is the usual form of business email reply (ie. keeping a
complete copy of the email you're replying to after your reply). It
doesn't play nicely with the archiving for this list, so it's preferred
if you don't do it. If you are replying to a certain part of a message,
quote it beforehand (as I've done here).

I think the answer to this one is simple, most people involved in the
Linux community have a rather intense dislike for .NET based solutions.
I don't understand why anyone would want to code in such a horrendous
proprietary language which is completely useless away from Windows. I
don't think the Linux community has any interest in coding in vb.net,
hence why you won't be able to find a documented working solution using it.
