Peter,

I wondered the same thing myself. It blew my mind when I discovered it.

"""
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!

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?
