How would I go about installing monodoc?  Is there any plans to getting it
in a state you do support (or even supplying a stand alone version of the
html files one browses on the website, to use for offline viewing)?

Well, I use MacPorts (/opt/local/bin) for much more that just Mono/GTK# so
it is always toward the head of my path.  So to use the MonoFramework I must
have /Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Commands before /opt/local/bin on my
path.  Thus, the links in /usr/bin are never used.  I guess they do no harm,
but it seems cleaner without them.  It is not a big deal.

OK, I assume you will think about as they mature.
