I have a ton of code that relies on System.Drawing so I've been watching this closely. These are projects that go back over 10 years now. I have code in both web server and client side versions. System.Drawing offers some features that other image processing libraries don't. My use case probably isn't typical but when you are trying to go back and forth from vector to raster data you need access to the point data (along with manipulation) that is going to be drawn. System.Drawing provides this flexibility through the GraphicsPath object. It is good to see some official word on this though.

Chat to us on github. Our path drawing public API's are very similar to System.Drawing so we may well be able to provide you with the same functionality.
I'll check it out James. I keep up with you on twitter, wish I had more time to contribute. I have a lot of respect for your hard work though.
Thanks!
