I'd like to second the poster who said thanks for all your hard work.

It's pretty freakin' sweet to be able to develop my asp.net MVC sites in Monodevelop instead of VC. I really prefer KDE over Windows as a UI, and y'all let me work in Linux all the time now!

I second that sentiment. I mostly use C# for work - about half web stuff and half OpenGL-based user interfaces, and it's a real boon to be able to do all my work in Linux. Some other C# devs here work on Macs. We all appreciate the Mono team's hard work.

Are you guys using OpenTK?

Yeah, just a portion of it (a modified fork of the GL bindings). We wrap our own framework around the bindings and combine that with SDL2, plus Cairo/Pango for vector drawing and writing text to textures, libogg/libopus for audio files, Assimp for 3D assets, etc.

I stopped paying attention when the development stood still for a while, hence my question.

Thanks for the feedback.
