 As you can see they're blindly looking for a property in an object
 whose type is undocumented. It's their fault.
 
 When they cannot get that and return a -1, the connection is closed.

+The reason I'm checking the maxRequestLength here is that I want to 
+abruptly terminate the upload request if it's too big. AFAIK, the way 
+ASP.NET is implemented at this point (I'm not sure if this exists in 
+xsp as well) is that if an oversized upload comes in, ASP.NET will 
+blithely accept it and read the whole request into memory before 
+noticing that it exceeds the request length and returning an error 
+code. I would like to avoid that behavior by terminating the request 
+if it can be determined earlier using the ContentLength header.
+
+The HttpContext.GetConfig method seems to be a standard way to get to 
+the web.config information for a request. See 
+http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-
+us/cpref/html/frlrfsystemwebhttpcontextclassgetconfigtopic.asp. What 
+would the mono way be of getting at this information.
+
+I'm eager to get this issue resolved. I would like to get SlickUpload 
+working on Mono. Let me know your thoughts on this issue. If there is 
+a better/more cross platform way of doing this, I'd like to implement 
+it ASAP.
