Hi,

Mono 1.2.6 has been released!

Downloads are available:  http://mono-project.com/Downloads

Rpms in the suse build service will soon be updated.
( http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Mono/ )

Major highlights: 

      * Mono 1.2.6 can now be used as an SDK for creating Silverlight
        1.1 applications on all platforms. This allows developers to
        create applications that target Silverlight without requiring a
        Windows installation. 
      * Native Windows.Forms driver for MacOS X allows Winforms-based
        applications to run without an X server. 
      * Support for the ASP.NET AJAX APIs and controls. 
      * Support for FastCGI deployments: ASP.NET can now be deployed on
        a multitude of servers that implement the FastCGI protocol
        (lighttpd for example) in addition to Apache. 
      * Windows.Forms now supports the WebControl on Windows and Linux
        using Mozilla. 
      * Runtime will now consume much less memory for 2.0-based
        applications due to various optimizations in generics support as
        well as including many new performance improvements and an
        updated verifier and an implementation of CoreCLR security. 
      * C# compiler is quickly approaching full 3.0 support, most of the
        basics work right now (except support for
        System.Query.Expression AST generation).

Thanks to all of our users and contributors.

Enjoy!
