[Mono-list] RE: [Mono-announce-list] Mono 0.22 has been released!

[Dan Maltes]

I'm curious, how can we tell what parts of the remaining mono framework
classes are/can be written in C# and what parts have to be done with
gcc/glibc?  I've no experience with gcc but would like to contribute to
mono framework classes that can be written in C#.

Hello everyone!

      We are releasing a new version of Mono, Mono 0.22. A new release
is made today because of the few recent bug-fixes that were committed
to CVS.

     Source code and binaries for this release can be found on the
     web page,

	   http://www.go-mono.com/download.html

     The URLs for the sources are:

     * MCS package (the Class Libraries, C# and VB.NET compiler
       and other assorted tools written in Managed code):

	    http://www.go-mono.com/archive/mcs-0.22.tar.gz

     * Mono package (the Runtime engine and JIT compiler):

	    http://www.go-mono.com/archive/mono-0.22.tar.gz

     RPM packages for this release can be downloaded from the web-page
as well as from the 'Mono' channel on Red Carpet. Debian packages will
appear on the download page later, as well as an installer for our
Windows users.

     Since last Thursday, 320 commits have been made to our CVS
repository. These following hackers contributed to Mono since version
0.21:

     Aleksey Demakov, Alexandre Pigolkine, Atsushi Enomoto, Elan
     Feingeld, Dick Porter, Dietmar Maurer, Duncan Mak, Gonzalo
     Paniagua, Ian MacLean, Jackson Harper, Jean-Marc Andre, Jerome
     Laban, Lluis Sanchez, Martin Baulig, Miguel de Icaza, Nick
     Drochak, Paolo Molaro, Pedro Martinez, Per Ameng, Peter Williams,
     Rafael Teixeira, Reggie Burnett, Sebastien Pouliot, Tim Coleman
     and Zoltan Varga.

Highlights:

    * The "MemoryStream" bug.
       This bug affected a lot of classes, and made them crashy,
       database code, XML parsing and a few others were
       crashing. Thanks to Gonzalo for fixing this bug.
	
    * System.Data:
	More bug fixes from Aleksey and Tim.

    * Reflection:
        Zoltan continues to provide fixes to our Reflection.Emit code
        to host IKVM. 
    
    * Remoting:
	Lluis added support for activation using activation
	attributes.
	 
    * PEToolkit:
	Jackson imported the PEAPI package from the Queensland
	University of Technology in Australia. This will replace the
	existing Mono.PEToolkit for our ILasm back-end.

    * Windows Forms:
	More fixes from Reggie and Alexandre.
	
    * System.Web.Mail:
	Per has been working on this namespace. He announces recently
	that all major parts of System.Web.Mail has now been
implemented.

    * System.Web.Mobile:
        Gaurav continues to make progress here.

    * Misc:

        Ian MacLean contributed a /compile flag to monoresgen and
        assorted bug-fixes and improvements from the rest of the team.


    My name is Duncan Mak, and I just made my first Mono release.
