The Runtime section of the site suggests that PInvoke will be supported, but
the Classes section says, 'The only drawback is that support for PInvoke of
Win32 code won't be available.' Does this just mean that you can't run Win32
code on Linux (duh) or what? Clarification would be appreciated!

As for windowing: Will the HWND (etc.) functionality of the System.Windows.*
libraries be supported? If not, how can we expect compatibility with GUI
apps?

Thanks for the info. I'm excited about the project.
