Thanks Elliott!
 
 Thats very helpful.

Check this out: http://www.mono-project.com/Mod_mono#Paths

You'll see that you can use "MonoServerPath" to specify the actual 
ModMono executable used, and instead of using the default one, you can 
use "$MONO/lib/mono/2.0/mod-mono-server2.exe" to target the 2.0 profile 
(where $MONO is the path to your Mono installation).

Not sure on this, but I would think you can specify different 
"MonoServerPath" settings for different vhosts.

Cool!

I write all of my apps at the minute using VS2005, and am finding it 
easy to port most apps to using the Mono 2.0 profile, so that I can take 
advantage of 2.0 features. I had a tough time using web apps created 
under VS2005 using Mono a while back though, so took to (where possible) 
back porting them to 1.1, removing partial classes, and obviously this 
was only possible for projects not using or referencing 2.0 features 
like generics etc. This did however get my web apps built using VS2005 
running on mod_mono!

I haven't retried straight porting a 2.0 app created with VS2005 in a 
while tho, when I get more time I hope to give it another bash; I'm sure 
with a lot of the recent updates to the codebase I should have more luck 
:-) Let me know how you get on!
