Two days ago ( after working on my own pc repository )  I create this git repository for the Addin source code:

http://github.com/xiul/Monodevelop-Database-Modeler-Addin/tree/master

I use Manuel's Library monohotdraw for graphic part too, as a way of share same basecode for the graphic engine of monodevelop models addins, and I use MonoDevelop.Database classes for database related stuffs.

A screenshot of this Addin working is here:
