== Mono Loader SoC Development Notes ==

'''SoC Goals and Milestones'''

  * Completely wrap libpurple API in .NET bindings.

  * Fix the Mysterious Seg Fault On Exit (tm).

  * Re-examine and possibly re-implement signal-glue and API -glue code.

  * Give .NET Purple objects the ability to actually update their C counterpart (or create one).

'''Loader Internals:'''

  * There must be a better way for having the loader handle signals on behalf of .net plugins (will document the current implementation here).

  * Right now delegates are invoked and just given an array of their data.  Would be nice if we could explicitly state what they expect, e.g. {{{ OnBuddyStatusChanged(Buddy b, Status s) }}}

'''Mentor Goals/Objectives ([http://guifications.org/trac/wiki/grim grim])'''
 * Implement signal chaining in Mono so Pidgin's signal handling doesn't get eaten up by the Mono runtime.  See [http://bugzilla.ximian.com/show_bug.cgi?id=75990 Mono Bug 75990].
 * Fix the build system so that make can be run successfully with multiple jobs.
