[Mono-list] Mono repositories for Ubuntu

[Alexander Peters]

Hi all!
Thanks for the answers, i will try to build deb packages for ubuntu.
What a bummer, that the distros not put all ready to use in her distros.
It's hard to install mono Software to customers computer when he is
using an other distro as the developer.

Greetings
A. Peters
