While Linus is an interesting guy ...<br>

It's as simple as picking the profile you compile to. To run the
system you need a runtime that implements that profile. There are
current packages available (and a really nice GUI if that's
something you like in Monodevelop) for all the major distros.
Including (gasp) Debian. <br>
<br>
So for this project pick a profile. People compile it based on that
using a set of packages of their choice. You're not supplying a
binary distribution anyway, it's an alpha projects, yada yada. If
someone is actually running a grid and supporting "customers" on it
then its their responsibility to acquire (hire) the skills it takes
to run the environment. <br>
<br>
Pretty sure Linus would agree with that. .NET actually does take
ABI compatability seriously. That's what the profiles are an attempt
at.<br>
