Since F14 will be shipped only one month later than mono 2.8, I'd like
to suggest not to update mono in the F14 branch to 2.8 or any release
candidates for now. If the mono release would be delayed we would end up
with some probably instable pre-release in F14.

Updating rawhide with the release candidates or the final mono 2.8 is
for sure a good thing to report any problems to upstream early.

If it turns out that the final 2.8 is quite stable and none of the major
mono-based packages rely on .NET 1.1 we can always reconsidering the
decision on the mailing list later on and update it in F14 as well.

Paul, do you agree?

Best regards,
Christian
