While I've had a tinker with both Mono and Android, I haven't used Mono on Android. I have however, had the displeasure of using it on GNU+Linux. I'd sooner do a UI rewrite than touch Mono again.

About time. Gnome has been suffering from 'feature' creep for years. As of late it has gone from merely unpleasant, to barely usable.
