Re: [Mono-list] Mac OS X and Windows.Forms

Yes, our Windows.Forms implementation relies on Wine. I believe that's 
the only way to run Windows .NET applications who go around the .NET 
API and p/Invoke a whole lot of win32 APIs. One could have a 'native' 
implementation but it would not run very many Windows .NET 
applications. I had heard of Wine efforts on MacOS though, I think.

Hello,

 X, no?

People have ported Wine to MacOS before (a few months ago in fact),
when we have a mature implementation, I do not see why we could not
support it ourselves.

But right now the focus is on fixing all the bugs, missing features and
problems that we have today.
