|  Based on a discussion of the problems of running NUnit 2.1 under mono,
|  I concluded that the Windows registry stuff in the nunit.util.dll should
|  be removed and put into a separate windows-only dll. However, browsing
|  CVS,
|  I see that the same code is in the current mono nunit2 build.

I haven't been able to try the build on Linux in a while, so I'm not sure
what the issue is.  However, I've heard a rumor (actually Gonzalo told me on
IRC) that the NUnit folks are working on this issue.  Since they know best I
think it's a good idea to wait for their solution.

|  So, does mono support the windows registry? If so, I assume only on
|  windows.
|  Do you all think removing the registry-related code is the proper thing
|  to
|  do?

I assume the registry support is for the GUI, like a "Recent Tests" menu
item. We don't have the GUI in mono CVS, so if you need a quick build fix,
it might be enough to just delete those files.  I haven't tried it myself
however.

If there's a bigger issue that I'm not aware of, please let me know.
