There are some similarities between Mono.Addins and NApf, although the focus is different. Mono.Addins is just an add-in engine. It intends to be as small as possible, and avoids imposing an architecture on the host application. All the effort has been focused in building an add-in engine which is fast, memory efficient and scalable (a host can efficiently handle thousands of add-ins). On the other hand NApf is more focused on building an application framework. It has an add-in engine similar to Mono.Addins (since it is based on the SharpDevelop engine), although it isn't probably as optimized as Mono.Adidns (it's just a guess, since I haven't analyzed the code). In addition to add-in engine it offers other modules for managing settings, logging, and other high level UI components. That's not covered in Mono.Addins and never will.
