fwiw -  Pesonally I am not interested in a fast release or a rushed
release, just a roadmap for a release so I can try to plan my time out.

i.e. When the next official release of Mono 3.6.x is available I plan to
update Yocto meta-mono support, do some testing, and possibly revisit
some build instructions for Windows if necessary.

I would also be very interested to see what is classed as a Q/A bug, and
what is tested by Q/A prior to release. 

For example, I contributed a bug report on Mono failures under ARM
hardfp some time ago and would love some feedback from somebody on what
I might be able to do to fix this.

Surely this is the type of thing Q/A would be looking to resolve prior
to a release?

"Mono doesn't work on hard float abi on ARM"
