This release introduces full Mono support under Windows. Now everything can be compiled and ran with the gmcs Mono compiler. This sets the foundation for Linux support, which will be gradually introduced over the next versions.
This release also corrects some rather evil bugs that caused crashes under Release mode with .Net, as well as resource leaking on program shutdown.
The GLSL.Lesson01 exapmle may crash on exit under Mono - this is a known issue, caused by incorrect disposing of resources. Hopefully this will be corrected in the next version.
The odd minor version number denotes that this is a WIP (Work In Progress). This means that the source and the public API (APplication Interface) changes rapidly from release to release.

This is an alpha release. This means it is not feature complete - more features are planned or are in currently in development. When all planned features are ready for testing, this package will move to the beta phase, were the focus will change to testing and bug-fixing.

Missing features include Linux support and more fine-grained window and context management. Also expect the naming scheme to change over the next few versions.
