Well, given that Xamarin doesn't seem to support Linux for their newest IDEs it's especially a shame. I'd prefer .NET/Mono over Java (and i'd prefer python and C over .NET), but it doesn't look like there's support for that..

Last time i tried to get MonoDevelop with those Android tools to check out cross-platform app development with Mono and it's a no-go. Now Xamarin Studio appears to be Mac and Windows only. Very disappointing!

All of the Xamarin Studio changes were pushed upstream to MonoDevelop.

It's true that we don't currently have a version of the Mono-for-Android addin available for the Linux versions of MonoDevelop, though.
