Hello, everyone.
Pardon my interjection;
I wanted to note that we (at our company) have fully working code (mono) 
running on two different operating systems (Windows and Linux), so while it 
might not be standard, if you write code to fit different operating systems, it 
is entirely possible to have cross-platform in mono... But as noted earlier, if 
this was not done from the beginning and things are hardcoded or use 
OS-specific functions, this will obviously yield issues.

Med venlig hilsen / Best Regards

It's not like Java where you can blindly expect your code to run across 
platforms.  More like Python or Erlang or numerous other languages and runtimes 
where most of the code will work across platforms, but some libraries are 
platform-specific.

WCF's TCP binding isn't going to work in it's current state, so if you're 
unwilling to choose a cross platform communications library, then it won't be a 
good fit across platforms.  That's more of a WCF issue than a mono issue, and 
well, WCF doesn't have cross platform in mind.  It's _Windows_ Communication 
Foundation.

If you want binary communications and want it to work cross platform and you 
want it to be more robust than simple sockets, then I would really recommend 
you use something more like ZeroMQ https://github.com/zeromq/netmq.

Mono is not a fully functional and complete .Net Framework virtual machine for 
Mac... It's a pity...
