This may not be a bad thing. LSL scripts require less work for  
instantiation and migration. For scripts that are not computationally  
intensive and are in attachments, it's unlikely that you'll ever get  
as good rezzing and sim crossing/teleporting experience with Mono  
scripts.

They shouldn't be in any rush to eliminate LSL, and should allow LSL  
scripts to be compiled for smaller memory partitions as well.
