[Mono-winforms-list] DateTimePicker : code offered (again)

[Peter Dennis Bartok]

Mark,

I apologize. Your original message slipped through.

I've looked in the zip file, and it seems that the control is based on 
Microsoft's code and it includes a license from Microsoft which requires, 
amongst other things, to include the license in any distribution in it's 
original form. I have to check with smarter people if we can include this 
into MWF, since the license as a few requirements, and does not look like 
it's just the MIT/X11 license that MWF is licensed under.

Cheers,
 Peter
