asks

about Mono? Will it break current LSL scripts? Is it best to take them to the preview grid to test for compability?

  yes... you should test scripts on the preview grid. You need a special viewer too. Make sure to check the "mono" checkbox

  "The Mono UI is really simple, a single checkbox on the script edit window will select compilation to Mono."

  Note: the checkbox is a compile target switch, so it is only available when you can compile.

  This means that the script must be in the contents of a rezzed object.

  A script window opened from inventory does not allow compilation, and hence lacks the Mono checkbox.

  just to emphasize, as there are a few people prophesying doom for old content, Mono should have no effect unless recompiled.

  aren't they going to phase out the old LSL VM at some point though?

  "We have no plans to eliminate the LSL2 VM." So ... about a week after Mono goes live?
