You could be right, the current situation is unsettled, so I'm personally reluctant to predict anything much. The argument for Mono seems to boil down to the MS teams not having enough capacity to get .NET Core production-ready for mobile whilst doing everything else.

I'm going to be learning ASP.NET Core, but not even think about possible production use until after the next release. We will probably continue to avoid .NET for mobile, and I would not consider Mono for any other use case.

Well, .NET Core is probably still 1-1.5 years away from being fully production "friendly". Common Open Source .NET libraries have to be ported, .NET Core itself needs to reach base class library parity at least as far as its scope is concerned (including things such as System.Drawing based on Skia# or similar), the tooling around it needs to mature.

Anything outside of ASP.NET Core or small command-line tools is probably premature in 2016.
