I'm certainly interested.  I don't know a lot about .Net.  Is your
backend an image backend or GUI one?  If the latter, are you using agg
for rendering ala tkagg, gtkagg, etc, or native .Net drawing?
Inquiring minds want to know.

The standard procedure for submitting a backend is to send it to the
dev list, where I and other matplotlib developers can take it for a
test drive and submit feedback.

I'd be happy to give it a try.  If you have any extra instructions for
.Net dummies, please send them along with the code.

Cheers!
