C# features

it seems that C# will support class extensions and lambda expressions.
Apparently the support for dynamic languages will be a key issue  
between JVM and .Net ones.

Hi,

I suppose you're talking about C# 3.0 ?

because it also will allow XML and SQL expressions directly in code, it
seems that C# 3.0 will be a mixture of many paradigms, future showst if
this will be a good mixture or not. Also, we have to wait what Microsoft
will understand by lamba expressions, because they always want to
present a so-called productive-simple-to-use environment ;-) Anyway I
would be pessimistic .....

BTW, C Omega (Omega written als small greek sign) is a interesting
research language from Microsoft. http://research.microsoft.com/Comega/

yes. I'm bad with concurrency and my gut feeling is that a real next  
jump in languages
would be to have a better/simpler way of dealing with that.
I will have a look at erlang to see if I can understand something.
We will see the future.

2.0 already supports lambda expressions, just not with the shortened
syntax that 3.0 will offer.
