No headers

Here are a couple pointers to follow when making a .NET API consumable by IronRuby:

Do not depend on .NET Attributes: IronRuby does not have a way to use them.
Do not depend on knowing a static type (related to #1): If you declare a class in IronRuby, the CLR class generated may be named something completely different, or may not be generated at all.
Avoid ambiguous overloads based on a params type: though this can be called by selecting the appropriate overload, normal Ruby method calls will not be able to select the proper overload.

Some .NET Libraries rely on reflection (e.g. LINQ to SQL, Databinding, some IoCs. AFAIK we can't reflect on an IronRuby object from .NET. I think that should be mentioned as some of the points to consider.
