Microsoft .NET Framework has releases: 1.0, 1.1, 2.0. Note that 3.0 is exactly the same as 2.0 but contains some more components.
Each release has different set of functionality. Mono is released as a single product that contains support multible framework versions. Profile 1.0 is intended to be compatible with MS.NET 1.1 and profile 2.0 is intended to be compatible with MS.NET 2.0. If you compile you code using MS csc 1.0, 1.1 or Mono mcs it will use profile 1.0. If you compiler your code using MS csc 2.0 or gmcs it will use profile 2.0. Also note that you can use .config files to override this default behavior.

For some reason I did not know about the 'profiles' in monodevelop.
