Don't know whether it's correct or not, but at least the concurrency apis within Mono has a reputation for being both wrong and slow. So getting to the point where they are wrong and fast would actually be an improvement :-)

You are probably being sarcastic but wrong and fast would really be worse because slow performance which would otherwise disusage people from using the wrong thing would go away.

I wish they would properly implement SSL and high bit-level encryption. I recently worked with a developer whom had a minecraft application written in C#, that wouldn't work in mono becuase mono was missing a type of encryption support that all .net framworks from version 1.0 have supported. He had to reimplement this encryption support within his app by hand
