I know everyone thinks vb coders are sloppy coders but I think that's a false perception. I always have option strict and explicit set to on. And every procedure uses Try Catch. I just think that the Mono group would benefit a lot from the large vb community if it was fully supported like C#. I'm looking forward to Mono's continued development.

The less mature part is supportting option explicit off and option strict off (latebinding), as we didn't write all the pessimization (oops flexibilization) code yet. Progress was made recently to support on error goto/resume, but we stronlgy recommend to use try catch for performance/easier-debugging reasons. We think that for WinForms apps, our compiler is already able to compile useable assemblies, for ASP.NET we are still experiencing some trouble with generated code for some constructs like calling parameterless subs without the empty parenthesis. Bug reports are welcome to better guide our efforts.
