I've updated the F# and cobra .NET/mono programming languages to 2.0.0.0
and 2010-10-18 respectively. This upgrade is part of an update of the
locker version of mono on Athena to release 2.8.

F# usage instructions:

cobra usage instructions:
http://ist.mit.edu/services/software/athena/languages#cobra

>From my message to users:

Mono on Athena 32/64 bit along with the usual set of compilers (C#,
Visual Basic, Boo, f#, Cobra) and utilities has been updated to 2.8
and made the default. The components were built from source
code. 

Usage instructions remain as before:

	setup mono

followed by one of the many mono commands:

	mcs file.cs  (and so on)

You can still access the prior 2.4 release by initially typing:

	setup mono_v2.4

instead.

For a more detailed description please see
http://web.mit.edu/mono_v2.8/README.athena, and examples in
subdirectories at the top level of the mono_v2.8 locker.

Release notes are at http://www.mono-project.com/Release_Notes_Mono_2.8
