[Mono-dev] Component 1

[Rafael Teixeira]

You should build in Windows, in VS.NET, if you wan't to really use the
design-time support most components offer. Also most of them come
packaged only with a installer for windows, and aren't easy to unpack
and install in Mono specially in any of the non-Windows OSes we
support. We also doesn't have a IDE that integrate them, MonoDevelop
currently works best for GTK#-based solutions.
