Hi! I think I can give you a hand. I wanted to do a tutorial too about
Gtk# and Mono, and the tribulations one can encounter as a newbie. So
far my experience with Mono is only a rather simple Gnome application
that I made, which is a front-end for Mencoder. It has been a very good
learning experience for me, and with every problem I have found, I got
to know some of the internals of Gtk#. The app is not finished by any
means, but does its job currently. I had a few problems with threads and
Gnome, and I think that is something newbies (especially the ones that
are migrating from Windows) will face many times in the future.

I am using now Eclipse for developing, so I can relate my experience
with it, which is very positive. It's the best tool I know for
developing on C# (don't know very much of Visual Studio.NET so I can't
comment on that).

Please count me in for the mono/gtk#/glade#/glib# sections, and in the
future with Gconf# (got to implement the preferences yet). If I do a big
polish to my app we can count it as a sample.

    Hi there!

    I had this crazy idea of a Gnome.NET tutorial, which could be a nice
    starting point for programmers whishing to get to understand and or
    develop with mono & gtk#.

    here: http://mwh.sysrq.dk/the_mono_tutorial/ is a beginning, containing
    very much nothing ;)

    My idea is to give an aplications programmer a nice overview and samples
    of code to get started. That is to be broad and not go into too much
    detail.

    Now I hope to get some feedback from you.

    1. Is this a good or bad idea? 
    2. Which content do you think should be covered in the tutorial?
    3. Is this allready being done?
    4. If you want to do this too please contact me.
