Re: [DotGNU]pnet on Windows

[Jason Batchelor]

As stated once before, I would love to port winforms to Aqua under OS 
X... I just lack the knowhow. I'm starting to work on getting into 
Objective-C, as that's the lang-of-choice for OS X... while it might be 
possible to write the port in Java for Cocoa, I'm not certain how 
stable or how efficient that would be.

I'm very new to C/C++, though I can pick things up quickly enough with 
a few tips and nudges in the right directions. I have a lot of 
experience with Javascript, Actionscript and ASP, and have started to 
get into C# at work, have dabbled with Perl and PHP, but would most 
likely need just a couple helping hands to get me under way...

1) Where do you think I should start?
2) Are the libraries that dotGnu is written under in C or C++?
3) Any other Mac-knowledgable people out there willing to take me on as 
an "apprentice"? :)

Thanks!
