Hi,

i think, using msbuild isnt the problem on Windows machines, but what is 
with Mono? MsBuild isnt present on Unix or MacOS.

But there is a 4 solution. The Monoproject writes an owen version of 
MsBuild called xBuild. Why dont cooperate with them an use the object 
model of xBuild to write an <msbuild-solution> task.
XBuild isnt perfect a the moment, it could compile some simple project, 
but why do the work two times.
