Great!  Thanks for your reply.  I was just looking at some of the source and I
realized just how easy it can be to write class library stubs... I sat down and
wrote some for System.Xml.Xsl this evening.  I randomly picked that one because
it was shown as "missing" on the mono site, and it looked relatively small.

Given that most of the information for how to write the stubs can be found on
msdn, it's not too hard -- just much typing :)  Implementing on the other hand...

Anyway, how would I actually contribute any work to the project?
