Can you suggest a language which *isn't* subject to "M$ IP"?


Java, the parent of J++, the parent of C#.
As I said before: most of the patents that apply to C# would also apply to Java. The beauty of patents is it's not who came out with the language first, it's who came up with the patent first. :-) Anyway, Sun has done a cross-licensing deal with Microsoft to protect themselves, but that makes Java about as safe as C# really.
