Re: [Mono-dev] [Mono-osx] [Mono-list] Mono 2.8 Second Public Preview
I would start by building the port and running the test suite, there is at least one transient crash when compiling. Additionally, the mach support for sgen will need to be completed for amd64 Im sure there is more but thats probably going to uncover lots of work, off the top of my head On 2010-09-21, at 10:01 AM, Natalia Portillo wrote: Hi, If you guide me to the bugs I'll do my best, however I don't know what they are, where they are, or the mono codebase.
