[Mono-dev] moonlight source in mono-2.0

Forgot to add that IMHO, ideally you should package (even if you don't
ship by default) the 2.1 assemblies (and smcs?) so that it is easier for
Fedora's end-users to get a working Moonlight should they choose to
install it.

W/o the 2.1 assemblies packaged, they would have to build their own
Mono.

Since Fedora deems Mono legally safe, there's no reason for Fedora not
to at least package the 2.1 assemblies as there is absolutely nothing
new in the code.
