+      <p>During the last quarter, many ports within the mono project
+	have been updated:</p>
+
+      <ul>
+	<li>Mono: 4.6.2.7</li>
+
+	<li>MonoDevelop: 6.1.1.15, 6.1.2.44</li>
+
+	<li>FSharp: 4.0.1.20</li>
+      </ul>
+
+      <p><tt>USES=mono</tt> has been extended to allow for easier use
+	of Nuget packages.  This extension has been used adopted by
+	FSharp, MonoDevelop and OpenRA.</p>
+
+      <p>Work has started on porting the Microsoft's open-sourced
+	Dotnet Core.  Thanks to the work of another team, the native
+	components of <tt>coreclr</tt> and <tt>corefx</tt> already
+	support &os;, however there is further work required in
+	bootstrapping the build process and compiling the managed
+	code.</p>
