[Mono-list] ActiveX dll with mono on windows

[Jonathan Chambers]

Hello,     COM Interop in mono on windows should work the same as COM
Interop on .Net. The tools support is not there (mono has no equivalent of
tlbimp for example), but the runtime should be fine. If not, file a bug.

Thanks,
Jonathan
