Since Mono isn't quite ready to handle a Windows build straight out of the box, here is list of things that need to be done.
Since GTK works so great on Win32 so nicely, MD should port pretty nicely.
However there are some issues that need some attention:
* Already ported gtksourceview to Windows, but it still needs some patches
for little annoyances (but its still very functional).
* Write patches for codehints (which currently still focus)
* Patch MD to use Windows native fonts and Windows native open/save dialogs.
* Recompile GTK# to include the gnome-vfs, gconf, and few other packages that
don't come by default. I want to use a Windows native versions of the
needed libraries that aren't provided where ever possible but this may force
us to rely on the Cygwin library to make it work.
* Make a documented and standarized build enviroment
* Design better Makefiles
