Haha, that's true indeed, Jorge :-)
Anyway, in the meantime, I solved the issue like this: I am using Mono.Data.Sqlite on both Windows/.NET and Mono. That works perfectly and saves me implementing two different APIs. As the Mono.Data.Sqlite is a managed provider, the only dependency is sqlite.dll, which is in the Public Domain and also works on both .NET and Mono. So basically, I achieved the goal of bundling all necessary pieces and sticking to open source / free software. Thanks for giving it a thought, though!
