Great news! :)

Ok, we can discuss it as soon as we can see them :)
But I don't think "smaller than their metadata flying around" is the
best rule to follow. I would prefer to think if it has sense to use a
library alone. For example, if you put gda-sharp in gnome-sharp, people
using the GNU Database Access to access their databases will have to
install all the gnome libraries. This is not a good idea.

Cool! I don't know about www.backports.org. Thanks! But now the "mcs"
packages aren't in the repository.

http://www.backports.org/debian/pool/main/m/mcs/

I have reported the prob to the backport lists.
