1.0 Finally

Mono 1.0 was pushed today. So everyone go download it, and start hacking. Also, we released a new version of MonoDevelop (0.5) to go along with the new Mono release.

This release process was a lot nicer than the beta1 process, which I think will go down in history as the most evil release ever.

Now that 0.5 is out the door, I can (while I can still afford to not be working) embark on my no-longer-so-secret crusade, also known as 'Break Everything'. We have lots of good ideas planned for 0.6 and later, but to get there, we have to rework a lot of the existing stuff. So don't be surprised if stuff that should be working is kinda working, and this process might take a handful of days. My goal is to maintain at the very least a buildable application, everything else is bonus points.

Seriously though, there will be some breakage, but it shouldn't be too bad, don't be shy about reporting it.

In other semi-related news, I checked my bank balance today, and have gone prematurely grey. Looks like I am going to have to start looking for a job a lot sooner than I thought, which just sucks.
