Fwd: Mono-2.6 - heads up - mono - Fedora mailing-lists

21 Sep 2009

      Paul sent this to the main development list without Cc:ing
fedora-mono, so here it is.
This update will hopefully *not* land -- it's simply too late, and too
disruptive, for F-12, without clear advantages. I suggested to Paul to
branch mono for F-12 early instead, after which he can land dangerous
changes in -devel.
If this happens, and you track Mono's CVS entries, then be sure to
switch to monitoring F-12 rather than devel.
Paul, are you sure you don't want to add yourself to the fedora-mono list?

Hi Folks,

Just spotted on the mono forums that mono-2.6 is being branched on
Monday which means that it (should) be in the Rawhide repos Tuesday.

As it stands, 2.6 is a world of difference to 2.4.2.3 in terms of speed
and reliability. I've not encountered any big problems with code
compiled under previous versions of Mono not running under the 2.6 svn
branch yet, so it should be good and smooth.

I would recommend though that maintainers of applications reliant on
mono recompile them against 2.6 when it hits rawhide just to be safe.

TTFN

Paul
