MCS currently builds on both Windows and Linux (the web pages need to be
updated).  The only problem right now, is that my hard drive died last
night, and I had to reinstall a full system (linux, ximian, vmware, xp,
.net sdk) and I am basically paralized until this happens.

Yes.  A set of binaries are on the nightly snapshots, but as every other
project, they are already outdated.  I will try to push something as
soon as my system is operational again.

If you have Windows + .NET you can compile those, or wait for me to
finish my installation.
