[MonoDevelop] Review of MonoDevelop

[Daniel Hughes]

monodevelop 4 is in debian sid (debian unstable).

Ubuntu gets its packages from debian. So the next ubuntu should come
with MonoDevelop 4.

If you can't wait then the following PPA appears to have MonoDevelop 4
https://launchpad.net/~keks9n/+archive/monodevelop-latest I have not
used it so can't recommend it.
