<br>
And now that you brought that up, the obvious follow-up question is,<br>
can we reliably detect whether OpenSim is being run under Mono or the<br>
.NET Framework? As you pointed out, Mono runs on Windows, and it is<br>
possible that someone running OpenSim under Mono on Windows would<br>
*pass* the Win32 platform check and get our shipped Mono.Security.dll<br>
loaded, which would conflict with the Mono.Security.dll shipped with<br>
the user's Mono version and perhaps cause exceptions.<br>
<br>
So the condition for loading the bin/lib/.NET/*.dll would be: on Win32<br>
AND running the Microsoft .NET Framework (or, by implication, NOT<br>
Mono)<br>
