I've used your program Salvatore and I have the following comments 1. The program name (first field on the first step) , won't let you have spaces etc (looks like it's used for the file name or something). This wasn't clear and so it wasn't working for me, so I ran it from the command line and saw the error output that helped me come to this conclusion. Perhaps better validation is in order? 1. Selecting where to put the deb would be nice. It's not obvious that I should look in my home folder. 2. The writing on the top should say "steps" not "step" (I know that is nitpicky) 3. In a future version it would be cool if you could simplify the application requirement step since I have no idea what to put there as I don't know how to create debs (I figure you kind of want this for people who don't need to know that).
I know you said it basically your program to learn mono so my comments are probably pretty dumb but I know I will want feedback on my application so I hoped it would be helpful.
