I don't know - and don't care to know - much about Mono, but I do have a
casual interest in DotGNU which is less Ximian-centric. It's only a year
old, and at least another year's work is required, but perhaps in a year's
time, and after AbiWord 1.2 is out the door, we should evaluate DotGNU and
possibly integrate its services with AbiWord.
I'm thinking that it may be possible to write plugins in C# and/or Java :-)
Ciao, Frank
