[Mono-osx] [PATCH] cocoa-sharp patch for mcs 1.2.5

[David_Hudson at capgroup.com]

Hi,

I am not sure how much my opinion actually matters for this, but I say
commit the patch and then release the latest cocoa-sharp code from the
tree. Version 0.9.3 of cocoa-sharp needs to be released. Anyone else have
thoughts?

Dave
