Hi Andreas

I don't think we currently use mono for anything on the Freerunner so
changing the rev of that wouldn't be much of a problem. If there any
external apps using mono now would the time to speak up if you need a
specific version.

What needs to be evaluated first is the new mono versions prerequisites.
Depending on what those are and how many there are will influence
whether the version can actually be bumped.
