As you would have guessed, the Mono debate is long from over. Two weeks ago, Microsoft extended its legally binding and perpetual community promise to cover the C# and CLI ECMA standards, which was generally seen as a good thing for Linux-centric fans of the C# language as well as for the Mono project. The FSF has responded now, and it isn't too impressed with Microsoft's move.

I can only assume this is a prime example of how behind the times Visual Studio is compared to just about every Java IDE. Are you telling me you can't just type in the class and have a pop-up option automatically let you import it, without your hands leaving the keyboard or your cursor leaving the position? IntelliJ, NetBeans and Eclipse have had that feature for years.... "
Of course there is code completion. But code completion and automatic code generation does not make the code easier to understand.
The issue I have is that core interfaces like IEnumerable<T> are mixed with the collections library that I do not want to use.
This is just one example out of hundreds for bad design decisions.
