Windows Forms and Mono Article

My cross platform Windows Forms article is up on DevX. I couldn't have got this working without help from Peter D. Bartok both at the Brainshare conference and via e-mail. The mono IRC channel is also a good place to hang out and find some of the key players to ask questions of.

I can't help but wonder how successful this type of coding will be in reality. I know that the Novell iFolder folks use native code on OS X, Linux and Windows to make their UI look natural for each platform. It will be interesting to see how a Windows Forms program will look when they get to version 1.2 and have all the controls implemented.
