Is it possible to convert a windows assembly to mono?

I have a closed source assembly (isn't obfuscated or anything like that), but I was wondering if there was an application that will take that assembly and convert it to mono (especially for use on linux). Is this automatic or do I need to do something. I haven't done any mono... ever.

Use Mono Migration Analyzer to make sure that it is Mono compatible. If so, any .net assembly may be used a Mono based project. If it's an executable, test with mono myapp.exe from shell.

Assuming that everything required by the assembly is supported by Mono, you shouldn't have to do anything - it should already be binary compatible. That's one of the points of IL :)
