Absolutely, yes. you have 2 options for this: 1. you can write a satnav-like solution, similar to TomTom or MapMyRun or Runkeeper. These stay running in the background and get location updates as the user moves. The downside is, this chews the battery, so it's not something the user might want

Thanks. I think #2 will not cut it for the client's needs. Is there anything one can do to mitigate the battery drainage of #1? Like using cell tower/wifi for location instead of GPS? (This app will only be used in urban settings anyway.) And maybe increasing the polling interval? I don't

From what I understand, RC2 is only available for Mac (which is why it's not been pushed to the download page) because it is the same as RC1 but with a few MacOS fixes. If you are on MacOS, you should be prompted to update to RC2 when you start up MonoDevelop RC1. Hope that helps, Jeff On Tue,

We have also seen that MonoDevelop 2.6 RC 1 doesn't offer the update - if you get this, re-installing RC1 should give you the prompt for RC2. Hope this helps, ChrisNTR On Tue, Aug 23, 2011 at 4:37 PM, Jeff Stedfast j...@xamarin.com wrote: From what I understand, RC2 is only available for Mac
