[Mono-winforms-list] Still can't get winforms to work

[Jackson Harper]

Have you followed the instructions to build the managed windows forms
found here: http://www.mono-project.com/contributing/winforms.html ?

By default the old System.Windows.Forms.dll is built. You need to follow
those instructions to build the new System.Windows.Forms.

The 1.0/2.0 directory doesn't have anything to do with it.
