[Mono-list] system.management

[Zac Bowling]

There are specific pieces in WMI that might be portable (like the SNMP 
stuff if you install the WMI to SNMP bridge which people rarely ever 
do). I looked into about 2 years ago and had bits and pieces working but 
I recommend avoiding the WMI/System.Management stuff like the plague. 
It's like windows registry. Serves little function outside of windows. 
Some RPC implementations are written to be similar but for the most part 
WMI is a beast of its own.
