That could be interesting - I wonder if that means tech like Mono.Cecil will find its way into mainstream .NET?

I would love to see it. However, past experience tells me that when MS were under different management, open source didn't quite mean what we all know it means. I'd love to be proved wrong this time. I'm all for genuine competition. -- Terry Coles -- Next meeting: Bournemouth, Tuesday, 2014-11-04 20:00 Meets, Mailing list, IRC, LinkedIn, ... http://dorset.lug.org.uk/ New thread on mailing list: mailto:dorset@mailman.lug.org.uk How to Report Bugs Effectively: http://goo.gl/4Xue
