NPlot also came top of my list, but the project seems to have died since it transferred over to svn and SourceForge. I've also forked it for my own use, and extended the Gtk# implementation to handle Interactions (https://github.com/hwthomas/NPlot) to the same level as the Winforms demo. However, I haven't (yet) added any more documentation than in the original NPlot, and there is currently no integration into the Gtk# designer either, both of which were requirements of the original query. My own preference for a cross-platform toolkit is now Xwt, which already has a very adequate Drawing API, and I'm currently porting NPlot to Xwt when time allows (also on github).

It's not on the active to-do list right now, partially because there are some mono bugs that make my end goal impossible, even if I was to finish the Florence part of it. So I wouldn't count on this any time soon, but I am still interested in the project and hope to finish it at some point.

    Thanks for the information on Florence! That is exactly what we are
    looking for, but with the Gtk backend. (We would use the imperative
    API from a variety of scripting languages, including IronPython,
    Scheme, Logo, Basic, Ruby, and more). We are stretched too thin at the
    moment to be able to help very much, but we'll keep that on our list
    to watch.
