I have published version 0.0.6 of Wine Mono on Sourceforge, because
it's probably not good to let it get too stale.

The source tarball is at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/wine/files/Wine%20Mono/0.0.6/wine-mono-0.0.6.tar.gz/download

The binary is at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/wine/files/Wine%20Mono/0.0.6/wine-mono-0.0.6.msi/download

For developers, the source repository is at
https://github.com/madewokherd/wine-mono

Changes since 0.0.4:
 * Updated the visual basic class libraries from upstream.
 * Updated mono from 2.11.1 to 2.11.4. Unfortunately, there wasn't a
nice changelog like 2.11.1 had. Here are some highlights:
  * Beginnings of support for hosting ActiveX controls inside
winforms. (Alistair Leslie-Hughes)
  * Various HttpClient-related fixes. (Martin Baulig)
  * "Intermediate" state check boxes now rendered in winforms. (Steven
Boswell II)
  * ACL support on Windows. (James Bellinger)
 * One can now specify WINE_MONO_TRACE=wrapper to log all transitions
between native and managed code, which is sort of the Mono equivalent
of a relay log.
 * RVA fields can now be accessed properly via the ldsfld[a]
instruction. This should help with Managed C++ support.
 * Fix for winehq bug 30947 - Mono would cause a hang when a dll is
loaded after Mono is loaded but before it is used to run any .NET
code.
 * Because of a problem with the build system, MonoPosixHelper.dll was
not present, and this prevented some builtin methods in Mono from
working correctly. This has been resolved.
 * Added hashes for all included files in the msi package, which is
needed for msi to replace the files on upgrade.
 * Added 64-bit registry entries to the msi package.
