Hi,
I just got started playing around with Mono and .Net coming from a =
C++/Java
background.  I don't know if go-mono site already does some of the =
things
you're talking about, but I would be happy to help if you wanted any, or =
if
anyone wanted to start one I'll be happy to get on board as well. :-)
