Adding support for .NET 1.1 i trunk - is it possible?

At least for me it would be useful to have support for .NET 1.1. I am aware of the 1.0-branch, but I would like to benefit from the 2.5 and 2.6 work that has been done i trunk, as well as any bugfixes not merged from trunk to 1.0-branch. I am therefore looking into adding support for 1.1 in trunk. As I am new to Python.net, it would be nice if someone more knowledgeable had a quick peek at my planned approach. Would the following approach work?: - Where generics is used in Runtime, using conditional compilation to replace: List<string> aList; aList = new List<string>(); with List_of_string aList; aList = new List_of_string(); OR: Might possibly create sed scripts or similar to create *.net11.cs files with generics declarations replaced instead. The various List_of_ and Dictionary_of_ classes would be code generated and placed in a single code file. - Use conditional compilation to isolate all GenericUtil-related code. - Create makefile.net11 for build Does anyone have any advice to offer, reasons this approach won't work, insights into how the task is vastly more complicated than I think etc.?
