See "pnet/engine/HACKING" in the CVS tree, or the following paper that I 
presented at last year's Linux.conf.au:

    http://www.southern-storm.com.au/download/pnet-engine.pdf

(The benchmark numbers are a year old, so they will have to be redone if you 
want to talk about performance).

Also, there are some old slides that I've used before to give an overview of 
Portable.NET:

    http://www.southern-storm.com.au/download/pnetslides.tar.gz

The slides are for MagicPoint - start with "slides.mgp" (which is a plain text 
file).  MagicPoint itself is a very nice slideshow package for GNU/Linux and 
can be obtained from here:

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Cheers,
