[Mono-list] Re: Summer of code suggestion

[Alexandre Miguel Pedro Gomes]

I agree with Abe. While Gtk# is like a son of Mono, it even works with
Windows and is much more easier to make cross-platform, MWF represent native
Look&Feel on the major OS. If you're developing something for the masses and
non-techical users, UI and integration is very important. If you are
developing for *nux or for techical users... thats less important.
