Hi Hank

>Actually, Cobol for .Net is available. http://www.netcobol.com/products/windows/netcobol.html is just one of them. There is apparently a Pascal version in development: http://www.tmt.com/net.htm. And of course there is Delphi: http://www.borland.com/us/products/delphi/index.html

Oh, so I guess it is upto the Open Source community to develop such a CLR thing, if MS won't want to do it. Creating a just compiler in OSS is valid in copyright terms?
