>You're assuming that there is a 1 to 1 relationship between all 20+ languages. Not true. Also, what happens if you're debugging in C# say, but the module was written in VB and uses VB.NET commands instead of the Frameworks?

No, what I am saying is that every language has a direct relation to IL... it seems to me, it doesn't matter what language was the source of the IL, since that IL could be created with any language, it seems to me you should be able to go the other way.

Sort of like IL being english... once a language is translated to english, it can then be translated to any othe langugage. A natural langugae is alot harder too since there is are much looser rules as far as vocabulary and sytax.

>Its a cool idea, but it would make more sense to just agree on a copmany wide language.

I agree... but mark my words, I bet we will see this farily soon, probably by a third party company.
