This issue seems to be resolved now: Microsoft has made a legally binding promise not to sue anyone who uses or distributes implementations of said ECMA standards. Following this news, Mono will be split in two; the ECMA standard parts, and the rest.

Just like the GNU project began to clone UNIX sixteen years ago, we will be cloning the .NET development platform because it is a great platform to build on.
