[Mono-devel-list] MSBuild ..

[Jaroslaw Kowalski]

Sorry, I accidentally pressed ctrl-enter ;-)

I was just going to say that in many cases the same NAnt buildfile can be
used in both environments without modifications. Things are getting better
every day as the NAnt team is working with the mono team to squish the bugs.

I really encourage everyone to try the latest nightly build of NAnt.
