[Mono-dev] sgen progress

[Miguel de Icaza]

Hello Pablo, Mark,

    Congratulations to Mark on the fantastic job that he has done with
the new garbage collector.  This is great progress.

    And we need to thank Codice for helping with the test suites,
providing us tests, and running Mono with SGen under stress.   This is
the kind of contribution that does not come in every day, and one that
requires a lot of work on their part.

Miguel.
