[Mono-osx] Contributing on a Mac?

[Chris McKinnon]

Hi,

That sounds fairly straight-forward.  Is there a solution (.sln) for the framework?  I tried the "mono" one but it includes C++ projects.  Is the "mono development kit" just the source code or is there something additional I need to install?

Thanks for your help Jon,

Chris

Or does this depend on what pieces there are contributing to?  Or is an IDE not used in general (but command line tools instead)?
