Mono for Gnome Applications

This is a more complete tutorial to developing desktop applications with Mono and Gtk#

IMPORTANT

The table of contents could be revisited to focus more on actual issues of applications on the Desktop: drag-and-drop, deployment (mime-types, desktop files), internationalization, use of gconf, creating user defined widgets, using OpenGL and Cairo, etc.

A new TOC has been created for a re-write of this section.
