I'm happy that there are people working on software like this.

But perhaps it would have been better if Microsoft would've made their software cross-platform themselves..?

Microsoft devs are probably heavily involved in Moonlight, as Microsoft and Novell have somekind of an agreement. (http://www.novell.com/linux/microsoft/)
