There is a Gtk-sharp project in the CVS which will expose Gtk+ to C#
(both on Linux and on Windows).  That being said, we will also
implement System.Windows.Forms (on top of Gtk-sharp which handles all
the lowlevel stuff).

We will also make it simple to write a Bonobo component in C#.  Just
like you can write COM components in Windows.
