Sorry about that...I guess I should read  the message headers a bit more
carefully in the future :)

Nothing is truly imminent--however, quoting the FAQ listed in this thread:

" Should GNOME programmers switch over to Mono now?Yes, we believe that Mono
1.0 is ready to be used as the main development platform for building
applications for the GNOME desktop. Mono includes
Gtk#<http://www.mono-project.com/GtkSharp>a .NET binding for GTK+ and
various GNOME libraries which together with C#
and the System libraries provide developers with great productivity for
building graphical applications especially when compared to GTK+ or Java
Swing.

"

I wouldn't be surprised if Mono starts becoming a GNOME dependency sometime
in the next 12 months, given Miguel's infatuation with MS technology.
