We'll find that a lot of useful but low profile packages have been removed to make room for the 100's of megabytes used by mono and the mono-based packages that duplicate the functions of existing packages.
Just like with a Wikipedia article, MS is able to dilute a full distro. We can make room for more functionality to the basic installation CD by clearing away mono and its dependent packages .
