[Mono-winforms-list] Howto mix WinForms and Cairo?

So Cairo is GTK# only for now - quite sad since libgdiplus adds
another layer of overhead  (the stateless GDI+ draing machinery) which
I do not want. (I plan to emulate Java2d on top of mono's APIs,
however Java2d is a state-based darwing machinery, so I fear a lot
temporary objects will need to be created.)
Because of time preasure (how could it be different) I'll implement it
using System.Drawing and see how well it works.

Thanks a lot for answering, lg Clemens
