[Mono-osx] [Monomac] [PATCH] New Villain tracker sample

[Miguel de Icaza]

Hello,

     I have not quite started using the new bindings/events in the sample.

     Here is the problem: when we use the ObjC/Delegate to C# event mapping,
we basically implement a class that has all of the delegate methods
implemented, and we just raise the events or call the method that returns a
value as needed.    There is a problem though, when Objective-C sees that we
have implemented a method (like in our case), it will not use any of its
default implementations, and instead rely on ours.

     And I am not 100% sure that I got all of the DefaultValue arguments
right, so for now the sample keeps using in the major places the Delegates.
  I only used events in a couple of places.
