(I'm shifting this discussion to the DotNet mailing list.)

 Carsten, actually you don't necessarily need to get into C and unmanaged
code. Indeed the DotSpatial library and the others I mentioned on Codeplex
are NOT com/activeX. I do though also run the MapWindow project that has one
realization with a very lovely C++ ActiveX control that totally/easily
replaces MapObjects, so you can go that route if you want to. But if you are
comfortable with managed dotnet code then you should get involved in our
DotNet C# projects. - Dan
