Red Hat to support .NET

Wow I wonder what has driven this? Anybody know?
Linux won the server market. RedHat is in the support business. C# developers that have server code want to deploy on Linux now that they can and with this they can even pay for support.
There's a large base of C# code, and there's a market to get it moved from Windows to Linux.
And a large base of C# developers who can now easily deploy to RHEL servers. Which will increase the need for support services for it all.
As much as I like JVM and how performant it is, the .Net platform feels less prone to stagnation and feature decay.
Add to that F# which I honestly don't know how I missed for so many years.
Exciting! .Net on Linux!
(yes I know about Mono, but so far it wasn't widely adopted due what I understand is commercial support and performance issues)
