Hello Graham,
 
I been using exclusively Windows 2000 for the last 6 months (well since I joined up Mono) without too much difficulty (once setup). However I only work on the class library (I can't build the runtime) and I never used GTK# or QT# (actually I never used Winforms), the Mono debugger (screenshots are so cool that I may install Linux just to try it) so YMMV.
 
For myself the most difficult part is that the Linux and Windows build are different (make versus NAnt), which sometimes lead to small problems (mostly when I break the Linux build because I forget to add the new files the unix.args).
 
So running XP shouldn't stop you from contributing in (most part of) Mono.

Just out of interest, how many people use Unix / Linux for writing / contributing to  MONO and how many people use Windows?

 

I wouldn't mind helping but I'm running WinXP, am I going to find it difficult?
