mono (2.4-1) unstable; urgency=low
* Mono 2.4 ships a lot of goodies:
+ SIMD support in Mono.
+ No expensive polls in the threading implementation any longer.
+ Speed-up garbarge collection on multi-core systems.
+ Optimized XPath (using 15% less memory).
+ Faster DateTime.TryParse implementation (by not using try/catch).
+ Support for precompiled ASP.NET pages.
* Complete Announcement of Mono 2.4 (vs Mono 2.2):
http://www.mono-project.com/Release_Notes_Mono_2.4
* Mono 2.2 also ships with lovely things:
+ The tree-based code generation engine in the JIT was replaced with the
Linear IL engine, which allows better optimizations.
+ Generic sharing is now used in all cases (reduces memory usage).
+ Generic sharing is now supported on ARM.
+ Support of full Ahead of Time Compilation.
+ New PerformanceCounters implementation that allows to monitor the runtime
internals. Including the GUI tool "mperfmon" to view them.
+ Interactive shell called "csharp" that allows to execute C#
expressions inside a shell. There is also a GUI version available
called "gsharp".
+ Live Inspection. You can attach using the csharp shell to a
running process and run code inside to debug things.
+ The C# compiler will now optimize empty strings ("") away with
String.Empty (which reduces memory usage).
+ The Regular Expressions engine has been rewritten being more efficient.
At the same time compiled regex are also supported now.
+ ASP.NET supports now new routing handlers needed by ASP.NET MVC.
+ In the WinForms implementation were almost 200 bugs fixed (since Mono 2.0)
* Complete Announcement of Mono 2.2 (vs Mono 2.0):
http://www.mono-project.com/Release_Notes_Mono_2.2
* Mono 2.0 shipped with:
+ A console debugger (mdb) part of the mono-debugger package.
+ WinForms 2.0 API is complete.
+ WinForms's WebBrowser was implemented using Mozilla's Gecko HTML
rendering engine.
+ WinForms now supports international keyboard input through XIM.
+ Performance of locking (used by threading) was significally improved.
+ New debug parameter "--debug=cast" which print outs the types in for
InvalidCastException.
+ The C# compiler supports now expression trees (for LINQ) which completes
the C# 3.0 support.
+ The C# compiler is now dual-licensed under MIT/X11 and GPLv2 (only).
+ LINQ and LINQ to XML are now complete.
+ Big Arrays for 64bit architectures are now support (but have to be
compiled using the --enable-big-arrays configure switch)

mono (1.2.2.1-1) unstable; urgency=low
* Here we go, Mono 1.2 is now official stable and released!
* Mono 1.2 brings a lot of new features in:
- The C# 2.0 compiler is now stable, and the ECMA standard was updated, so
it's safe to use C# 2.0 (gmcs) now. _But_ the 2.0 API is not complete, thus
there are classes/methods still missing.
- Mono is now officially supported on the following architectures:
+ 32bit: i386, powerpc, arm, s390, sparc.
+ 64bit: amd64, s390x, ia64.
The debian packages are available for: i386, powerpc arm, amd64 and ia64.
Packages for s390, s390x, sparc and kfreebsd-i386 are under review, when
the ports are prooved to be stable enough, we will include them.
- Complete System.Windows.Forms 1.1 API
This version is not using wine! SWF runs natively on Linux (X11 driver)
using an own implementation (libgdiplus).
- File System Watching API now supports inotify.

mono (0.96-1) unstable; urgency=low
* It has been quite a while since the last Mono release in Debian and
we feel that it's time to announce few things changed in the
meantime:
- dependencies management and debhelper integration - the new
mono-utils package contains scripts to create and manage dependencies
between the .NET library packages. They work in a similar way to the
.shlibs system in Debian. For more details, see dh_makenetlibs(1),
dh_netdeps(1) and monodoc's rules file as example.
Another script available now is dh_installxsp which will install
snippets of configuration files for XSP packages (HTML/ASP.NET server
and Apache module).
- the GAC - except of mscorlib.dll, all DLLs are moved into
/usr/share/dotnet hierarchy and are now loaded using the GAC (Global
Assembly Cache) method. This also makes sane versioning possible,
similar to SONAME handling on native shared libraries.
- see README.Debian for further details about changes and the current
.NET Debian policy
