[Red5] C# & Red5

My (now very old) version is available for download here:
http://3dchat.game-host.org/~schwimmlehrer/webcam.zip
I stopped developing it because of performance problems and because I did 
not manage to implement something like bandwidth control (i.e. dropping 
packets and stuff). So in an instant the picture the user sees lags behind 
the live picture (BTW: Is this working by now?).

About using Spring in C#: I would really like to see a design that separates 
"Application Server" and "Protocol Libraries". It should be possible and 
permitted to implement or use a subset of Red5. IMHO this would make it a 
lot easier to understand, implement, test and integrate Red5, especially 
when re-implementing it in other languages. ASP.Net has a lot of very 
powerful configuration options.

For my use I just need a live webcam. I don't need application server 
functionality. I am using Mono on Linux, which is open source. So Mono 
support is important. About Java vs. C#: .Net was built with hosting in 
mind, Java was not. In general .Net uses less resources.

Thank you
Bernhard
