Wake me up for Mono 3.5

It depends on what part of .Net 3.5 you want to use. If you want to use C# 3.0, including LINQ, you can do that in Mono 2.0 as well.

If not, what part are you interested in? It seems the uptake for the rest of .Net 3.0/3.5 (WPF, WF, WCF) has been very small.

I think WCF has been the most used when compared to WPF and WF. I use WCF quite often but sometimes I have to go back to .NET 2.0 which means using .asmx services. WCF is a big beast though with many very precise features. It would be great to see that supported fully in Mono because WCF really is just a WS-* implementation which is meant to work well with Java and other platforms. The other technologies do not present the save cross-platform value. Being able to deploy a WS-* service under Mono (and vice versa with .NET to Mono) which is consumable by other languages and platforms would serve the Linux/Gnome platform in a positive way. And being able to consume WS-* services in the cloud which are published with Java, .NET or other platforms would allow for more cloud integration.
