[Opensim-dev] Anyone testing out mono 2 previews?

[Alan M Webb]

Sean

I didn't use the 2.0 preview - I used the latest SVN about 6 weeks before 
the preview was announced, and as Dr Schofield says, I did encounter some 
problems. I diagnosed the ones I encountered and found them to be mostly 
caused by the fact they were rewriting the .NET library string formatting 
routines, and as a result I was getting variable length UUID's!!! (Due to 
sign propagation on a  "negative" UUID). Apart from that my region came up 
OK, but then I ran into the same problem I was trying to resolve in 1.9.1, 
so I abandoned it.

Best regards
Alan
