[Mono-list] NUnit Version - Upgrade soon?

[Atsushi Eno]

Actually it turned out to be my bogus Makefile that assumed
nunit-console-runner.dll is nunit-console.dll, which was conflicting
nunit-console.exe and hence type loading failure happened (and turned
out that it should fail since foo.dll and foo.exe cannot coexist).

Now I have a fixed version of nunit for our own use:
http://veritas-vos-liberabit.com/tmp/2008/nunit24-mono.tar.bz2

If no problem, I'll checkin this new nunit24 directory and build
changes, without removing nunit20 for a while.
