I’ve since learned that the problem is already fixed in the code, it is just working its way out to a released version at the moment.

Since my previous post, I stumbled across this well-written “what it is/is not” type of document from the core project:

Well worth a read if you are at all curious about why you’d care about .NET on CentOS, or why we need a second implementation.

...on CentOS, I mean.  I’ve just seen the news that 1.0.0 final binaries are shipping on other platforms.

But by that very token, why are you asking about stability and security so early?  1.0.0 of *anything* is rarely rock-solid, and you can’t say the first version of *anything* is secure until it’s been proven over time to be so.

Give it time.
