[Ximian] spent a lot of time making [GNOME] look pretty, by working on good themes, and also cleaning up applications to make them workable and useful. They wrote applications they believed should exist that weren't around, eg the [Evolution] groupware/MailClient and the RedCarpet channel-based package distribution system. They were also responsible for a [Free] commercial version of [GNOME] called XimianDesktop, and [Mono]. |

They were purchased by [Novell] in August 2003, apparently in order to have a decent !GroupWise client for Linux, and for which a connector for [Evolution] is now in heavy development. |
