* Ideas
+ There are many pending classes that need to be implemented. Those have
+ the highest impact in the Mono project: the sooner they are done,
+ the sooner we can start using this platform to create new and
+ exciting applications.
+
+ That being said, if you are not very excited about working on class
+ libraries, here is a list of other related projects or tools that might
+ be useful to the Mono project.
+
Here are a few ideas of tools, classes and projects that you
- could start.
+ could start. More are forthcoming.

- Implement a JXTA protocol implementation:

- Implement a Mail API, similar to Camel or JavaMail (Camel has
- significant architecture features that are required on a real
- mailer)

+ Such an implementation could be used both with

** Projects
- Here are some projects you might be interested in working on:
+ This list of projects ideas is outdated
+
+ * Once <a href="http://remoting-corba.sourceforge.net/">CORBA</a> is done, implement the Bonobo interfaces
+ to allow people to use Bonobo components in Mono and
+ Mono components with Bonobo. The best of both worlds!
+
+ * A naming space for Mono. An object naming space is
+ a very powerful tool. Bonobo implements a moniker
+ system that is more powerful than the original
+ moniker concept that was pioneered by COM/OLE in the
+ Microsoft world.
+
+ Our implementation builds on a concept, and we have
+ made it simpler, more powerful, more extensible and
+ a much better mechanism than the equivalent monikers
+ on Windows.
- Implement an xmlStorageSystem for the CLI:
- <a href="http://www.soapware.org/xmlStorageSystem">

+ Implementing Mono monikers would benefit both
+ Windows users using .NET and Mono users on Unix and
+ Windows.
