[Mono-list] I'm Confused... when is a class really 'Completed'?

Sorry. When some time ago I was trying the Thread class I found that
some of those methods (in particular Resume and Suspend) weren't
behaving as they should (I spent a lot of time debugging not buggy
threading code :-)). So I added those messages and exceptions but I did
anything else. Maybe I should have added a [MonoTODO] before the method
too :-( 

The only answer I can give you is... look at the sources whenever you
think the class is not doing what it should.

Cheers,

Jaime
