Re: Mono 4 Alpha1

[Claudio Rodrigo]

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.
