Mono (aka Xamarin) are getting out of the compiler/language reverse engineering game and focusing 100% on mobile. They no longer need to clean room the MSFT implementation because the MSR license as a purple-pill. Now that Microsoft has relicensed under MIT developers are arriving in droves.
Advantages? .NET everywhere, SINGLE reference implementation/specification means no more bugs.
I understood it as a halfway pill between the red pill and the blue pill from The Matrix, and subsequently got very confused. Looking at it as a typo makes a lot more sense!
