This is almost > the case with that PR. We have mono@ mailing list, which is the "maintainer".

There are also human complaints that monodevelop is old and/or doesn't work. Not sure what is the official policy but you can be maintainer *right now* on behalf of mono@ I also would love some help in getting https://github.com/mono/mono/pull/1870 committed to mono and getting https://github.com/mono/mono/pull/1859 https://github.com/mono/mono/pull/1860 https://github.com/mono/mono/pull/1861 https://github.com/mono/mono/pull/1863 https://github.com/mono/mono/pull/1864 https://github.com/mono/mono/pull/1865 https://github.com/mono/mono/pull/1866 https://github.com/mono/mono/pull/1867 backported to 4.0.3 as well as help with how to proceed with https://github.com/mono/mono/pull/1882 futher - maybe by getting mono working with system iconv and not the GNU one - see http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports/2015-July/099675.html ~Marcin
