* 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. More are forthcoming.

** Classes
<ul>
* Implement a JXTA protocol implementation:
<a href="http://www.jxta.org">http://www.jxta.org</a>
* Implement a Mail API, similar to Camel or JavaMail (Camel has
significant architecture features that are required on a real
mailer).
You can check the current C
<a href="http://cvs.gnome.org/bonsai/rview.cgi?dir=evolution%2Fcamel">
Camel implementation</a>.
Such an implementation could be used both with
Microsoft .NET and Mono.
* Interfacing to Multimedia systems. You might want
to look into the Quicktime API. I know <a

researched the problem before
</ul>

** Projects
This list of projects ideas is outdated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.
Implementing Mono monikers would benefit both
Windows users using .NET and Mono users on Unix and
Windows.
Here is <a

overview of the moniker system</a> in Bonobo.
