X11 on OS X , but generally speaking with multiple backends (like a win32
backend is there too). Today's commits include antialiased fonts via freetype.

We're following the Compact Winforms API initially and leaving the WndProc
stuff for later ... So pure .NET Winforms apps will run portably leaving
the "I'll call this great user32.dll feature" people out.

And the screenshots include a Custom Control written in .NET .... 
(and images stuff is libjpeg , libpng etc compiled with our Managed C
compiler giving pure IL code and being portable as hell :)
