[Mono-list] Mono 3.0

[jmalcolm]

The roadmap for Mono 3.0 lists the following as the major features:

- New Generational GC becomes the default
- IKVM Reflection or Cecil powered C# compiler
- SGen: Precise stack scanning
- New profiler
- Tuned Parallel Frameworks
- Complete .NET 4.0 Core Support
- Complete WCF 4.0 API support
- Tail call optimizations for F#
- MonoMac and MonoMac bundler
- IronPython, IronRuby and F# bundled with Mono

If I am correct, the following features are already present in 2.11
(master):

- IKVM Reflection or Cecil powered C# compiler
- SGen: Precise stack scanning
- New profiler
- MonoMac and MonoMac bundler
- IronPython, IronRuby and F# bundled with Mono (in 2.10)

What is the status of the following?

- New Generational GC becomes the default
- Tuned Parallel Frameworks
- Complete .NET 4.0 Core Support
- Complete WCF 4.0 API support
- Tail call optimizations for F#

The reports I have been seeing are that the GC is very close. I see quite a
lot of chatter about WCF support so I assume that is coming along as well.
How are the parallel and tail call projects coming? The last I heard, there
was nobody working on tail call optimisation.
