104: Conversations with GNOME Mono Xamarin creator Miguel and VS App Center PM Simina

In this episode of Fragmented, Donn makes the pilgrimage to Microsoft Connect 2017. Connect is Microsoft's annual developer conference where they announce a bunch of new products and services. Donn got to interview a bunch of folks, and in this episode, we talk to two of them: Miguel De Icaza (leading open source proponent who also helped create Gnome, Mono, Xamarin etc.) and Simina Pasat (Program manager for Microsoft's very new CI like service AppLink). Both of them were terrific guests and had quite a few gems to share, for us Android devs!
