Thanks for your reply.  I have simply been using the Object Browser built into VS 2005 and typing in the enum constants that it lists.  I know that's not a decompiler or ildasm.  Not entirely sure exactly what's a reflector, so I'll ask to be sure.  Is Object Browser ok?  I could only find one mention of it in the Mono mailing archive, and it sounded ok from there.

Thanks!

Hello,

  
    
My questions are:
- Is this helpful?  (Or will this just get in the way of the MWF 1.1 
effort?)
    
      
This is helpful.

  
    
- What would be the preferred method to submit?  This list, bugzilla, or 
get SVN access?
    
      
The mailing list initially is the best thing.

  
    
- Anything else I should be aware of?
    
      
read the www.mono-project.com/SVN to get yourself acquainted with the
rules of developing in Mono.   In particular it is extremely important
that you do not ever use a decompiler, reflector or ildasm on any
Microsoft code you are implementing.
    
Out of curiosity, should this documentation be extended to exclude using 
documentation written by people who have used a decompiler, reflector or 
ildasm? Or is that 'ok'? I am primarily thinking of documentation which 
you can find on the web written by random people, some of whom often 
state that they used reflector to work out exactly what was happening.  
Based on such documentation, I can then write nunit tests to verify that 
what they say is true, and implement based on the results of the nunit 
tests.
But if its ok to use such randomly found documentation on the web, I 
could just get a friend to start churning out such documentation for 
anything I'm interested in implementing.  Such documentation would not 
be pseudocode (or anything which looks vaguely like an automated 
translation of the output of reflector/ildasm/etc), it would be an 
accurate description of behavior.
