[Mono-dev] New Property on System.Web.Hosting.HostingEnvironment

[Martin Thwaites]

I didn't just plan on waiting,  I've worked around it.

The reason for the mail was to highlight it so that if anyone was working
on that section they were aware that it could do with being added.

It's something pretty fundamental to the building MVC sites, so if
promoting mono to the wider MVC audience is important, it's needed.

Although I have no idea how I would go about implementing the property, I
will give it a go.  I have never contributed code to n open source, and
given the size of the mono code base, it's quite a daunting prospect.

To be clear I'm not under the illusion that I can ask and it will be done.
