Hi, Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 2 finally was released as a standalone update: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=5B2C0358-915B-4EB5-9B1D-10E506DA9D0F&displaylang=en
As a result the following version should be used for comparison: 1.1 SP1 2.0 SP2 3.5 SP1 Updating to 2.0 SP2 would also render the "but not for detecting if there are extra APIs (we will have them, as we are now tracking 3.5)" clause obsolete. Also note that the actual status pages at http://go-mono.com/status are empty for me using Internet Explorer but work with Firefox.
