The decision to "relegate" Mono from production to sample status has been based on multiple factors. For one, we only support basic compilation for Mono, no debugger nor any kind of visual designers (like GTK#). We got lots of support questions regarding these, and the honest answer had to be "we won't support that, sorry". Then in December Miguel announced that MonoDevelop will come to Windows (MonoDevelop is a fork of SharpDevelop), which meant that an IDE would come to Windows that fully supports all the things in Mono we don't have.

作出将Mono从产品“降级”为样例地位的决定源于多个因素。其一，我们只支持对Mono的基本编译，既没有调试器，也没有各种可视化设计器（就像GTK#那样）。我们收到许多关于支持这些内容的问题，而最诚实的答案就是“对不起，我们不会再支持了”。然后在十二月，Miguel宣布MonoDevelop将提供对Windows的支持（MonoDevelop是SharpDevelop的一个分支），这意味着这个IDE将支持Windows，也就是完全支持Mono中我们不具有的所有内容。
