+Summary: Possible bug in Mono's generics support
+
+Hello!
+
+I'm a - new - developer of PythonNet http://pythonnet.sf.net/. I was able
+to get PythonNet running with Mono and I was even able to fix some problems
+related to UCS-4 unicode with help from the mailing list.
+
+I've an outstanding issue with generics under Mono. Three unit tests
+related to generics are failing but the same tests pass under Windows with
+.Net 2.0. I'm unable to debug the cause. It might be a bug in Mono's
+generics support. Even Miguel said so on the mailing list.
+
+Install python2.5 python2.5-dev libmono-dev
+$ svn co
+https://pythonnet.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/pythonnet/trunk/pythonnet/
+$ make PYTHON=python2.5
+$ make PYTHON=python2.5 test
