What apps are going to replace the mono apps that are removed. Remeber that they should be equal in every respect as to functionality and features. And they should not be replaced until the alternative app is equal if not better before inclusion. (Ex:gnote is still not equal in all respects to Tomboy in features and functionality), therefore should not be included by default till completed. Replacing the mono apps with inferior apps just defeats the purpose of displaying the advantages of your product. Ok, I see everyone wanting mono apps removed. So hear is a question to all of you.

It works correctly on all of these. It is a good move to include gnote instead of tomboy since a normal tomboy alone install takes 30MB of download and 98MB of installed space on disk(with mono) compared to about 2MB download and 10MB usage for gnote.

KDE4. As an added bonus it runs quite a bit faster than GNOME on any systems that has working hardware-accelerated graphics. Dare I mention another great option that avoids Mono entirely?

KDE4.

Trouble is, making it "optional" effectively makes it inaccessible in some situations. For example web-hosting servers, or any environment where "options" are ratcheted down by bureaucracy. No harm done though; Ubuntu works fine. I like having the choice to install mono. Trouble is, making it “optional” effectively makes it inaccessible in some situations.
