I've just posted our desing ideas in our blog ( 
http://aeglos.dyndns.org/tip-mono/ ) . If someone have any comment feel 
free to reply!

The only point still unclear is how we will make a compiled regex saved 
to disk to be able to run on .NET runtime. And of course we will have a 
lot of work implementing the ILCompiler.

By the way Eric Durand have added a bug report ( 52800 ) . This bug is 
about code which use regex compiled with mono will not work on MS.NET 
runtime.
