[Mono-list] Winforms designer svn URL is outdated

[Abe Gillespie]

Unless you're looking at this project to further develop this plug-in
then you're probably looking for something that does not exist.  A
WinForms designer never got further than a proof of concept.  It's
certainly not a complete solution even if you were able to ever get it
to build.

Sorry.
