Hello.

I fix more and more package to build with mono 4.

I will update Change mono 3 proposal for F22 to mono 4 for F23 but I need sponsor for my package https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1192059 to became packager and next co maintainer of mono.

Some of you can do a formal review of gtk-sharp3 package and sponsor me?

Thanks.

First off, thank you for doing this work!

I'm completely new to the .Net/C# and Mono universe, but I've been
using Fedora (and Redhat before that) for a very long time.

I have recently been assigned the task of migrating a .Net/C#
application to Linux, and as such I'm currently using your packages
to go through a few of the online C# tutorials :)

I'm *very* interested in seeing a recent (4.0+) version of Mono
officially supported in Fedora, as that will have a much better chance
of smoothing the migration of applications originally developed on
Windows.

I do have some moderate packaging experience (I'm down to three Fedora
packages, having orphaned a bunch of stuff I was no longer using
professionally).

If I can be of any help (if nothing else, I plan to use your latest
packages to learn c#, and generally serve as guinea pig), please let
me know.

I wanted to at least start by add a "+1" to the effort of upgrading
Fedora's official Mono package set to 4.0.X.

Thanks again,
--Gabriel
