I have now uploaded Mono 4 alpha1, and also KeePass and MonoDevelop

Mono4 now even builds for Epel6 and Epel7, by disabling the debug package.
I am open for suggestions and improvements, and happy to merge pull requests.
Next steps:
So should I go through the list of packages that depend on mono-core
in Fedora 22, and rebuild them for Mono4, and people can test them
from my copr repo?
This is how I get all packages that somehow depend on Mono:
repoquery --whatrequires --recursive mono-core
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,
