Fortunately, one can still uninstall a minimal amount of stuff that
relies on mono, then get rid of mono itself. Unfortunately more may be
tied to mono in the future, making Gnome worthless without it. Unless
people step in and work on alternatives for everything. Right now I
consider anything requiring mono to be useless in and of itself.
I only recently started using Gnome long enough to get comfortable with
it. I'm hoping the time spent doesn't turn out to be wasted. Then
again, I recall how they screwed up Galeon, which was once a pretty
good browser.
