Er what?

Daniels' point is valid, XStudio is the commercial package built out of
monodevelop, it contains all sorts of extra bits like android designers and
things for iOS.

When you go to monodevelop.com it should be clear that you can download the
sources, visit github or download binaries of monodevelop *OR* xstudio. 

It is quite clear to me that MD and XS are related beasts but they do *NEED* 
different EULAs as they are different products, even though they share alot of
source.

The monodevelop.com site looks like it needs some love and attention ( I'd be
happy to help, I really want to make the mono community web presence more
up-to-date with events )
