Put yourself into my position: would you be able to diagnose
problems of a foreign application that you've never seen?

Try to add some Console.WriteLines at strategic places
in your app, and/or describe what your app is about
(the frameworks it uses, etc.).

If you plan to run the application under Linux, you should
debug it there, because this platform is much better suitable
for debugging Mono apps.

A successful MoMA run does not imply 100% compatibility.
