[MonoDevelop] Monodevlop and Xamarin Studio roadmap?

[Chris Boyd]

What are you talking about?

There's a giant "Download Xamarin Now" button on the bottom of Xamarin.com,
and you're not asked to pay for it!
They only ask for your name, company, and email - and surprise! Free
download.

MonoDevelop circumvents this process by providing a separate link to the
download, but it's not circumventing any money for Xamarin - since you can
ALREADY DOWNLOAD IT FOR FREE FROM THE GIANT BUTTON ON THE HOME PAGE OF
XAMARIN.COM!
