Yes I can send a test. If you can read and understand Spanish please see
www.proyecto-mono.org the last article posted is about this problem and the
fix as Alan McGovern suggested me.

http://www.proyecto-mono.org/error-outputpath-property-is-not-set-for-this-project-en-monodevelop/

In Few hours a will send the test in VS and the test in MonoDevelop
