It would appear that your understanding of the Mono License is less than complete. Perhaps Microsoft should not have submited C# and portions of .Net to the EMCA.
What license or licenses are you using for the Mono Project?
We use three open source licenses:
* The C# Compiler and tools are released under the terms of the GNU General Public License (http://www.opensource.org/licenses/gpl-license.html) (GPL).
* The runtime libraries are under the GNU Library GPL 2.0 (http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/library.html#TOC1) (LGPL 2.0).
* The class libraries are released under the terms of the MIT X11 (http://www.opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.html) license.
Both the Mono runtime and the Mono C# Compiler are also available under a proprietary license for those who can not use the LGPL and the GPL in their code.

Hogwash, it's available under GPL which could and will be used by most if not all that use it. Bottom line is it's a cheap clone of a commercial product that's given away as an attempt to hurt the original manufacturer, in this case Microsoft, just as Linux has severly damaged UNIX vendors like SCO and Sun who used to dominate the *nix market.
