+ by end of January. Currently they have their 3 beta release out (0.18).
  
  Monodevelop is a very nice tool to convince a lot of Windows developers
  to continue to develop in Hardy, since telling them to use Vi/Emacs when
  they are used to Visual Studio is not always popular...
  
  A small recap of what Monodevelop is:
  
  MonoDevelop is a free GNOME IDE primarily designed for C# and other .NET
  languages. The main features of MonoDevelop are:
  
      * Code Completion. MonoDevelop's intelligent code completion
  attempts to complete type, method and field names as you're typing. The
  IDE will automatically get the class information from your source code
  files and from the libraries referenced in your project.
  
      * Class Management. MonoDevelop has a class viewer which allows you
  to list the classes in your project, their methods, and properties. Your
  namespaces are also kept track of to keep the classes separated.
  
      * Built-in Help. The .NET documentation and the Gtk# documentation
  are built into MonoDevelop for easy access.
  
      * Project Support. MonoDevelop comes with built in projects that
  help get you started with your console, Gnome# or Gtk# application.
  
      * Add-ins. MonoDevelop has a powerful add-in engine, which together
  with a modular API and a complete set of extension points, provides a
  seamless platform upon which to build your own development tools.
  MonoDevelop also provides an Add-in Manager you can use to install add-
  ins from online repositories.
  
  The latest changelog entries in Monodevelop contains among others the following:
      *  Support for moonlight runtime: projects can target the Silverlight/Moonlight runtime.
      * The property pad now shows information for solutions projects and project references.
      * Added support for specifying the C# language version to use to compile a project.
      * The new project dialog for Packaging and Translation projects now allow specifying the packages/translations to include. 
      * MacOSX support
      * Improved Dock manager
      * Support for VS 2005 Web Application projects
      * ASP.NET Codebehind Generation Improvements
      * Generation of Satellite Assemblies
      * Makefile generation improvements
      * IDE Improvements

      * GTK# designer: custom widgets now use by default the project name as category name, 
               in this way widgets are shown in the toolbox in a more organized way (Lluis Sanchez).
      * When using a gtk# version that supports it, MD now registers a global exception handler that 
               will prevent MD from crashing in case of unexpected exceptions (Lluis Sanchez).

      * Standard Header
      * Localization add-in
