(in other words, I agree -- this would be a smart way to attempt to get the article fixed. But after looking for a way to contact the author, I came up the mentioned linked page. Not a whole lot you can do about it when there is no known way to contact the author, and the author, for all intents and purposes, is unknown, the post attributed to "Coding4Fun")

<p style="margin-bottom: 12pt;">So what about all the people
who are left believing that Mono only has seven cool applications and is, for
all intents and purposes, only a 1.1 implementation?<br>

Sorry, too many problems with the article propagating bad information not to be
brought to the surface in a public manner. </p>

<p style="margin-bottom: 12pt;">Adding to this a bit, the mentioned O'ReillyNet
article is Edd Dumbill's October 2004 article "Seven Cool Mono Apps"
[<a href="http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/a/network/2004/10/18/mono.html" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/a/network/2004/10/18/mono.html </a>]
-- things have changed a bit since then (the official 1.0 mono release was only
4 months old) and while the coverage of the 2.0 spec is incomplete, I think it
deserves more coverage credit than "the API coverage is limited to .Net
1.1 with limited support for 2.0."<br>
<br>
No offense intended, but it seems "Coding4Fun" should be doing some
"Research4Real" before his/her next post on "the other .NET
framework."</p>
