Pretty much.

I think it can be split up into a few different tasks:
- allowing gmcs to be used as the compiler (fairly small)
- making sure running 2.0 projects from a 1.0 runtime in MD works ok
(medium)
- parsing / completion / the rest (large)

There isn't a timescale for this, and most of us are still focusing on
the the 1.0 stuff for the mono 1.2 time frame I think.  I am slowly
adding support for C# 2.0 features to the parser, but generics are
pretty far off for now.
