This post is outdated in my opinion. Microsoft reacted on it and is now  
applying the Microsoft Community Promise on the ECMA 334 and ECMA 335  
specs of .NET [2]. And this is not only a "promise" but legally binding.  
There will be a mono version only having the core parts [3]. So I don't  
see problems using mono on the toolserver. But of course I understand if  
you don't want to use it ;).
