Thanks for the update. I'll be installing mono along with evolution in an attempt to get MD running per Levi's instructions at:

My understanding from your post is that MD is not fully operational after doing this. Is this correct?

Uhm, since MD is loosely based on SharpDevelop, why not work closer with the SD development crew to make it integrate better with Mono instead of getting MD to run half-way on Windows and SD to work half-way with Mono? Wouldn't both IDE's benefit from a shared codebase in this area?

Hi Paco,

First of all, Happy Thanksgiving! Very nice present you brought for all of us.

I just installed last night so haven't tested all that comes bundled, except of course MD :D

Hope this kind of packages helps to promote Mono to Windows developers.

Paco, this is wonderful work. Have you opened a bug for the MD issue in Windows? I would like to track it and have a look if I figure out what could be happenning.

As for the SD suggestion, I totally agree Asbjorn, but perhaps this should be discussed in the SD forums and/or MD lists. BTW, this could be very difficult to achieve because now the codebases differ very much, and it's difficult to integrate things from a WinForms app to a GTK# one, and viceversa; besides it would be difficult to convince the SD guys to use GTK# (which in my opinion is much better), and it would be difficult to mantain MonoDevelop as the "Gnome" IDE and at the same time fully Windows-compatible.

This is the disadvantage of free software. There are so many alternatives that there is few cooperation :(

Thank you very much for your effort. Now it seems to be possible build a cross-platform app using MonoDevelop add-in engine.
