<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I imagine that this close to release it's fairly unlikely we'll see Mono 1.1.5 appear Hoary. I would love to see this happen, but I won't hold my breath either. I'm just curious what the goals are for Mono moving forward. I only ask because of tireless searching for some deb's for 1.1.5 eventually led me to the Debian Wiki where I read these three postings in order:</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">So, at least in Debian's sarge, which if I understand it properly Ubuntu branched from, proper Mono support is going to have to change dramatically enough that they've opted to hold off until they can execute a new plan… the steps of which are listed in that last link. Is it safe to assume that Ubuntu will have / has these same issues with moving to newer Mono packages?</FONT></P>
