[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 278946] Re: Please update to Mono 2.0

[directhex]

We apply a whopping 19 patches against Mono right now to make it usable.
Whilst a couple are minor things like autoreconfing, most are for pretty
major brokenness on important architectures (e.g. an arg checking bug
preventing compilation of xsp on AMD64). Each of those needs to be re-
audited.

In the words of one of the Mono core developers, "Debian WAS our QA
team" - and we simply don't have enough time to do our job and make the
Intrepid release. And frankly, given the sheer number of packages we're
talking about and the late stage we're at, I wouldn't blame any core
developer for a vomiting fit once they see a Feature Freeze Exception
for something as huge, core, and breakable as Mono
