Welcome to the Mono hacking crew!

I did that in the winter of 2002 (while slacking off in my Computer Architectures class). After seeing this mail, I did a quick locate on my machine, and I see that all those attributes are already in CVS. > System.Resources: > NeutralResourcesLanguageAttribute.cs > SatelliteContractVersionAttribute.cs Sigh, so yeah, the first thing Miguel asked me to do for Mono was to look into implementing the System.Resources namespace. I didn't know much about C# at the time, so these two attributes were one of the earliest C# classes I wrote for Mono. > System.Security: > AllowPartiallyTrustedCallersAttribute.cs As for this one, it looks like our main contributor for System.Security, Sebastien, has already gotten it covered... I feel bad because if these classes have not been already implemented, this would be an excellent contribution to Mono. But fear not! As I said, there is still a lot left to do. There has been talk on mono-devel-list lately about implementing System.ServiceProcess. This is a whole namespace that needs some direction and some hacking love. A few people have announced their interest in working on this namespace, and it would be awesome if you want to work on this namespace too. Of course, System.ServiceProcess is not the only namespace that needs work; System.EnterpriseServices, System.Messaging, System.Management, System.Configuration.Install are among some of the other namespaces that are left to implement. It would be great if you could maybe help out some of those areas too. Thanks for contributing, Duncan. _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
