Hello,

Having the future of Mono in mind, what are the plans on the support for
macOS? If we want to build a GUI that should work on Windows Linux and
macOS is still GTK# the best solution? Or are Xamarin.Forms supposed to be
better in time? I guess Xwt is not going much further than what we have
right now and Xamarin.Forms will probably replace it.

Thank you,
 Vladimir Dimitrov
