Wonder if Attachmate is keeping Mono, or if it makes part of the assets being sold off to CPTN Holdings LLC (whatever it is they do).

Miguel has tweeter that Mono is going to Attachmate.
CPTN Holdings is "a consortium of technology companies organized by Microsoft Corporation". So, Microsoft.
Well, it does seem Microsoft was involved in buying some of the IP: http://www.zdnet.com/blog/microsoft/whats-microsofts-role-in...

But notice they don't say what that IP was, so it's not clear if it was Mono-related or not yet. Not sure what MS would do with any Mono-related IP or if they'd really care about it (except for killing it, of course, and I wouldn't think that is their intention).
