Hi Sense,

There is a spec to replace Rhythmbox with Banshee in this cycle. This
would mean Tomboy is not the only mono-based application left on the
CD.

It's not useless at all. I have used a live CD with F-Spot before now
to demo that application to a user. This is one of the primary use
cases of the Live CD - demonstration of the capability of Ubuntu.

In this particular session I had a digital camera containing some
photos, which I used F-Spot on the Live CD to download. I then made a
minor change to one of the pictures (red eye removal) and uploaded the
picture to an online gallery.

Cheers,
Al.
