OK, I did it! I had to kill two chickens, a goat and wait until Mars was at the right spot in the horizon. Regardless of what it took, it appears that I have successfully built mcs and mono 1.0.2 for Win32 on one of my computers. I spent many, many hours trying in my super duper fast AMD Athlon 64 running WinXP, but got pretty much nowhere. So I decided to go to one of my Athlon Thunderbird 1.3 GHz running Win 2K Server, and guess what? That did the trick. Hmm, is it that the slower speed somehow helped? Both machines are identically configured for the exception of the OS and their CPUs. Or are they?

Frankly, who cares? All I know is that I am happy and that my fellow Windows primates should rejoice in the wake of a new version of the Mono and Gtk# installers for Windows that will be coming out soon. Once I can get a reasonable comfort level with the 1.0.2 installers, I will begin work on a set for the development release 1.1.1.

Erik and Joseph I owe you some emails and I have not contacted Stormy Peters either. Once I get the installers in the right place, I will do so!

Miguel, muchos saludos a los hackers Mexicanos de parte de un Puerto Rique�ito feliz.
