It will be released under the Microsoft Reference License (MS-RL). Doing this will allow developers to both view the source code, as well as step into sections of with a debugger that formerly were unavailable.
It is unknown how this will affect Mono development, but assuredly this will speed it up. However, one may wonder, based on Microsoft and Novell's recent agreements, if the Mono community could use large poritions of the frameworks code.
