[Mono-dev] Mono 3.6 release?

Would that be the case even if all changes were already upstreamed to
master?

Because that is practically already the case with Tizen.  There was only
one #ifdef change to the Mono Runtime.   The only other up- streaming still
todo relates to fixes for pre-existing Linux ARM broken tests or Tizen
build scripts.

Tizen really is just another Linux distro.  We're just building and hosting
binaries.

Why not have a "community supported, use at your own risk" section on the
Downloads page?

Cheers,
Bob
