Peter, I wondered the same thing myself. It blew my mind when I discovered it.
>From http://www.mono-project.com/download/#download-lin """ Xamarin packages These packages are built, tested and distributed by Xamarin. Use these if you want to use a stable, official and up-to-date version of Mono. """ Seems like that should be front-and-center on the monodevelop.com website. It would be great if you submitted a pull request.

That sounds like good news. But why is this hidden! >From monodevelop.com/Download you get version 2.6.0.1 >From mono-project.com the download page links to the http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=mono-complete stating that the latest mono is 3.2.8 Even if I visit the link you supplied the first line links back to the page above. So is the repo at mono-project.com a testing/unstable edition or can I send pull request to update the websites?
