This page is often cited, yet referes to Scala 1.4. Can anyone point me to documentation about running Scala 2.8 on .NET? Does it work?

    If you use Mono, you're always 'catching up' with MS.NET
Yes, how long do I have to wait for me to use MonoMac, MonoTouch, MonoDroid, GTK# and Mono's SIMD + Continuations support right now.
