I think it would be a very good idea.  Especially as applications that rely
on the mono and gtk# framework become more common in the various Linux 
distributions.  The ties to Novell/SuSE imho somewhat limit funding from other 
  companies (such as Canonical) who are coming to include F-Spot, Beagle and 
other apps which are written on top of the framework.

I'm not sure, and seriously hope that it wouldn't drive a wedge between said 
Mono organization, and Novell corporation.

This is just my own input on the issue.
