Hello,

The details are on the Mono FAQ, this is a question brought up all the
time.  Please read that, because it contains lots of background
information. 

Now, given:

        a. That the ECMA core patents have been granted to the public.

        b. That Mono implements plenty of non-Microsoft assemblies.

        c. That the Microsoft assemblies which are not part of .NET 
           are implementations of well known technologies.

People's opinions on this is that you are fine.

> 2.  What will be Mono's response if Microsoft decides to lean on Mono?

FAQ covers this.

> 3.  What advice would you offer someone who wishes to develop a C# 
> application for open source, under the GPL, given the above?

Develop it ;-)
