Great, thanks. =20

Here is a status update (with patch [1][3]).  Things aren't ready yet, =
but as=20
it=20
stands:
 - lang/mono: 5.2.0.215 (tests failing in mcs/class/corlib [run-test-lo=
cal])
 - devel/msbuild: 15.3 (tests failing [with SIGABRT])
 - lang/sharp: 4.1.25 (tests failing in math/measures/test.fsx [Invalid=
 IL=20
code])
 - x11-toolkits/gtk-sharp20: 2.12.45
 - x11-toolkits/gnome-sharp20: 2.24.4
WIP:
 - devel/monodevelop: 7.1.0.1297 (full nuget package restore required [=
extra=20
nuget support required])
 - devel/mono-addins: depreciate [2] (broken with mono5), fix dependenc=
ies
TODO:
 - mono: test self hosting
 - update mono-lite version
 - avahi-sharp: 0.7
 - bump all dependent ports
 - exp-run
 - commit to ports
 - upstream patches
 - fix tests

Note that the failing tests don't worry me too much.  Most of them are =
edge=20
cases that won't affect the average user (i.e. not a blocker to commit =
to=20
ports) - also I don't know how many tests are failing on other platform=
s (if=20
any). =20

[1] git clone https://github.com/DragonSA/ports; cd ports; git diff=20
master..origin/mono5.2.0.215
[2] A general discussion needs to be had around nuget packages.  How do=
 we=20
consume them?
  i) as downloads with each port containing a copy
 ii) local ports with consistency across the Ports Collections
iii) A mixture of the above (i.e. (ii) is there is a native component,=20=

otherwise (i))
I prefer (ii) as I think it gives the end user the best leverage to pat=
ch=20
issues with nuget packages locally (and to get updates without waiting =
on a)=20
upstream, and b) us/ports maintainer).  However, at this point that opt=
ion is=20
at 0% progress. =20
