I have been using and adapting those scripts to get my environment up to date.
It might help you to get your Mono environment up to date easier.
UPDATE: Nathan has been updating the script to install the most up-to date mono environment.
The “Festival de Software Libre” (FSL) is one of the biggest and more important FLOSS events in México, this time was its 9th anual edition. The FSL is characterized by bringing together many of free software community in the country to share experiences, ideas, knowledge, promote & publicize FLOSS projects and recruit new talent to join projects, FLOSS culture among new users, professionals, students, etc. The conference is mainly sponsored by the University of Guadalajara (http://www.udg.mx) and a local Linux Users Group GLO (http://glo.org.mx).
The conference promotes exchange of ideas between participants ranging from students to professionals and experts. For students (who is still the majority of the conference attendance) is an invaluable opportunity to learn from the experts, live chat directly with the creators of the software and leaders of national and international projects.
In short: It's a feast for the exchange of knowledge, experience and camaraderie
2. Conference Participation
Juan Navarro and Me as part of Intel, pressented a talk entitled: “La Interoperabilidad: Ques, Comos y Porques”. What Interoperability is, Why interoperability among different systems is important, how to archive, some common problems and how to solve it. In our talk we have the chance to talk with people learning about interoperability, and many of them already faced that issue in their own projects, and already solved in a way, we have the opportunity to share our experiences with them and exchange points of view. The audience were highly participative.
As usual YaCOMAS (A project I led), gained lot of lines of code and improvements. Almost every piece of the data flow at the conference was controled by YaCOMAS allowing the organizers to improve the ime spend on registration, accommodation and payment for the audience attending.

I just want to save this humble post on his honor cause all he meant to me, and because I feel and think he should be the role model for all the programmers around: Humble and Genius together.
Dennis Ritchie, Creator of the "C" language and co-creator of Unix is dead at age 70.....all programmers owe him a moment of silence. – maddog
