Unix was originally all about not being... Multics. If Mono is to follow a similar nomenclature (just for the kicks), we have to talk about Mono's upcoming 'monopolization' and 'monarchy' in the next generation of the Unix programming land. Your see, if everything goes well, in 2 to 3 years most new Gnome user/desktop applications will be written --hopefully-- in Mono and C#. Update: Miguel deIcaza replies.

Since I do not know all the details about GTK#, I have a question. Say I want to change the way a standard component works, say for arguments sake I want the tree view node to blink when some condition is reached (example only).
Do I have to
A. dust off my C skills and modify the tree view component, which I assume is written in C
B. can I introduce this change using C# buy subclassing the tree view component
I guess the same issue is valid for SWT libs.
Using swing on the other hand despite its perceived speed problem, you can make any changes (by subclassing or even reimplementing) to the behaviour of the tree view as everything is written in java.
