Hi,

No, for one thing main and supported are different set of sources, we 
can have things in main which are not officially supported for the LTS. 
We also didn't take any decision on the topic but if mono is having low 
traction in the linux desktop world nowadays (it was pointed at UDS that 
we don't see a lot of new projects using mono since f-spot, banshee and 
tomboy, most new GNOME projects seems to go for vala rather for example) 
the cost of supporting it officially for 5 years might be higher than 
the benefits, it's not a made decision of any sort but a topic to 
discuss and take in consideration there.
