If you use the .NET framework that essentially means that for the Wine
community it might as well be closed source. Most people do not have
Visual Studio 2010 and would not be able to compile your program.
Relying on a .NET interpreter (either MS or mono) adds an extra layer
where things break and makes everything harder to debug.

Whether or not the project is useful to begin with, this language
choice would make it less useful for Wine.
