1) support for mixed assemblies in Mono for Windows
I'm trying to do some work on that.
Cool!
2) porting Mono's WinForms on top of Wine gdiplus instead of Mono gdiplus (and making it more win32-ish as a result)
Mono is using MS GDI+ on Windows since it uses GDI+. Mono's libgdiplus is only used on non-Windows platforms.
I guess I assumed that Mono used native WinForms on Windows, and that its winforms code was only used on Linux. I clearly don't know enough about Mono to discuss it intelligently :-)
I also suggested on mono-devel-list that process creation and module loading for managed modules should be supported by ntdll.dll via callbacks to mscoree.dll as described in http://lists.ximian.com/pipermail/mono-devel-list/2008-April/027491.html
That's interesting info, thanks. At the moment you seem to be taking the lead on these issues. Please let us know how it goes. - Dan
