    Cool. In addition, ms seems to be very keen to add parametric polymorphism
    (which I believe is an important ingredient of today's programming styles)
    to .net and to C# itself. This attitude is much nicer than the unnerving
    "all features that are not in Java are not worth having" attitude that
    characterizes the early years of Java.

    FWIW, here's a paper on parameteric polymorphism in .net and C#:

    Maybe we can discuss the subject during one of our meetings? I'd be
    interested.
