+** Mono and GNOME
+
+Q: How is Mono related to GNOME?
+
+A: In a number of ways. This project was born out of the need of
+ providing improved tools for the GNOME community, and will use
+ existing components that have been developed for GNOME when they
+ are available. For example, we plan to use Gtk+ and Libart to
+ implement Winforms and the Drawing2D API and are considering
+ GObject support.
+
+Q: Has the GNOME Foundation or the GNOME team adopted Mono?
+
+A: Mono is too new to be adopted by those groups. We hope that the
+ tools that we will provide will be adopted by free software
+ programmers including the GNOME Foundation members and the GNOME
+ project generally.
+
+Q: Should GNOME programmers switch over to Mono now?
+
+A: It is still far to early for discussions of "switching over." No
+ pieces of Mono will be ready within the next six months, and a
+ complete implementation is roughly one year away.
+
+ We encourage GNOME developers to continue using the existing tools,
+ libraries and components. Improvements made to GNOME will have an
+ impact on Mono, as they would be the "backend" for various classes.
+
+Q: Will Mono include compatibility with Bonobo components? What is the
+ relationship between Mono and Bonobo?
+
+A: Yes, we will provide a set of classes for implementing and using
+ Bonobo components from within Mono. Mono should allow you to write
+ Bonobo components more easily, just like .NET on Windows allows you
+ to export .NET components to COM.
+
+Q: Does Mono depend on GNOME?
+
+A: No, Mono does not depend on GNOME. We use a few packages produced by
+ the GNOME team like the `glib' library.
+
+Q: But will I be able to build GNOME applications?
+
+A: Yes, we will enable people to write GNOME applications using Mono.
