Mono and FluentMigrator ..and Android

I’ve got a little itch to see about making FluentMigrator run on Mono. I ran the analysis tool, which say the FM assemblies look ok. However, System.Data.Sqlite.dll doesn’t seem to be good. I read that it should work on mono, and even if not there is Mono.Data.Sqlite.

I think it would just be cool to do this, but it would also let FM run on Linux and Mac with Mono. That would rock! People could write C# on Mac or Linux, and use FM. Now we’d probably need to add support for more databases, but I’d like to see that happen anyway.

So a secondary part of wanting this, is knowing that Mono can run on Android. I think Android is going to be big, and that its getting close to a huge growth phase. [I missed James Britt’s Android and JRuby talk last night.] While I’m happy to learn other languages, being able to use C# in new ways on a new device would be a whole lotta fun.

If anyone out there would like to help or offer guidance, you can reach me through the contact page. Or post to the FM google group.
