Thanks Lluis, that helps. One thing: It's not an application library. I'm
trying to make a package for agsXMPP (
http://www.ag-software.de/agsxmpp-sdk.html), a third party XMPP library.
It's stable and usable by many applications. In this case, how would I put
it in the GAC? There's no file to select in MonoDevelop and change the
properties.
