Can anyone tell Visual studio for mac 2022 release date and Maui release date?
I think they're still doing tooling updates for Xamarin for a while. For one, there are platforms that for now aren't (yet) moving to .NET 6 at all, such as watchOS. And second, they seem to have changed their Apple platforms tooling to basically dual-target Mono (for Xamarin) and .NET 6 (for MAUI).
