.NET is not, itself, non-free. Microsoft's
implementation (the most common
one) is, but Mono (
http://mono-project.com/Main_Page) is not. perhaps the AWB
developers could make whatever changes are needed to run it on a free
implementation.
Well, C# and .NET in general are patented so they aren't free
and
they're bad choices.[1] AWB depends exactly on the non-free
implementation of .NET, Microsoft's which makes it even worse. Any
other program will be nice, but a Python script will be the best
because I'll be able to adapt it by my own.
