[Mono-list] Packaged .NET Software for Linux

[Andrew Jorgensen]

As noted in the Mono Project news[0] the Mono QA and Build teams are
packaging third-party applications and libraries.  These packages are
used for testing Mono and many are included in the VMware image and
LiveCD.  All of the packages are available from the Mono:Community[1]
project in the openSUSE Build Service.

Outside participation in the Mono:Community is encouraged, particularly
upstream developers.

Here's a list of packages currently available[2].

We focus on the current openSUSE release so some of the packages may not
be building on Fedora yet.  If there are open source .NET programs you'd
like to see added please let me know and we'll consider it.

Our repository is available here[3], for instructions on how to add the
repository see the user manual[4].
