Can I get an explanation of the relationship between .NET and Mono?

I have vague memory of reading somewhere that Mono or maybe just MonoBuild was completely obsolete since everything was now open source in .NET.

Does Mono still have a reason to exist? Is it all incorporated into .NET now?

(btw, I still don't get why it's called .NET, and I don't know if assemblies are native code or bytecode wrapped in the same binary format as .exe, where is the ".NET for hardcore open source Linux nerds" blog post?)
