[Mono-dev] Using Mono.Options in MS.NET

Hi,

I just read Miguel's posting about Mono.Options being included in Mono
2.2.  I agree that Mono.Options is great; in fact, I include a copy of
it in several of the problems we've built at work.  It doesn't
particularly require mono, so it works fine under MS.NET.

There are a few other libraries in a similar vein, such as Miguel's
Mono.Terminal.

Now that Mono.Options is included in Mono 2.2, will it still be
available separately?  If not, it will be hard to build
Windows-compatible programs that use it, unless people go digging
throug the mono sources and extracting the libraries they like.  I
think it might be helpful to separate "mono libraries that add
functionality to any .Net application" and "mono libraries that
implement the MS class library" into two different projects.

Am I missing something?

Thanks,

Avery
