Hi!

One of the mono-goals easy language-binding for gnome.

Now, there are two ways of doing this:

- create a .net-compiler for the language (like mcs, oberon compiler)
- create a binding (like the .net-binding for php)

bindings would be easier to do, but have no multi-platform-support.
new mono-compilers will break compatiblity to existing ones.

Both have their advantages. I thnik the best way would be to create bindings
first, and then do compilers for some of the languages.
