Cool, XSP and mod_mono are next on my TODO list.  I hope to have these
tested out along with fully working ports for them plus a web app or two
by the next release.

Got it now, Mono Develop 0.5.1 was announced today.  It builds fine but
still needs some patching to run correctly.  I'll fix and commit this
weekend along with the updating gtk-sharp which I found was left off of
Ximian's announcement page.

Hmmmm, things definitely have changed in the past year and a half.  I'll
see if I can track him down.  Right now I idle on #Mono on irc.gimp.net
where a number of Mono developers hang out.  Might be time to start
talking on there.  :)  And a big thank you if you look into mono
debugger.
