Using Mono to port a C# .NET app to OS X?

Question

Alrighty guys, I\'m writing an application that I want to be cross-platform. Up until recently I\'ve been trying to do this in Silverlight with C# because it also runs on OS X,

In addition to what has been said already, considering that Mono supports a subset of the full .NET functionality, I would probably prefer to develop on Mono, then test against Microsoft's runtime, if the aim is to run on both of those. Otherwise, you run the risk of inadvertantly using some functionality that isn't available in Mono, and have to throw a large chunk of code out the window by the time you get around to doing the cross-platform build and testing.
