Because you can't is the simplest one. The reason is simple (from what I
can see). Despite the Borg going through EMCA, they have never
catagorically stated that anyone implementing .NET will not have their
backsides taken to town, wupped until the red goes red and finally
ravaged like a pack of hungry hounds with a lump of week old meat.
Without the mono runtime, having gtk-sharp et al is a waste of space as
nothing can actually use them, Red Hat run the risk of MS doing an SCO
on them (but this time there would be a case to answer to) and we all
lose.
Unlike over mp3 and mpeg, I actually agree with Red Hat over this. It's
all well and good SuSE doing Mono (after all, it is their product), if
they get hammered by MS, they lose and we continue. If .NET material
gets incorporated into the likes of Nautilus, Gnome, Evolution and HAL,
then everyone loses should MS decide to do what they are so famous for
doing.
