From Lang.NET 2008 – Monday
Monday 0815 So here I am. It snowed last night, so the drive down was a little crazy. I’ve arrived. They say I represent “Collier Technologies” instead of “Amazon.com.” I hope nobody at work minds. The network is up, people are arriving, we were offered a continental breakfast, and things are going to get started…

Lang.NET 2008
A few months ago, Mahesh Prakriya stopped by Amazon to discuss the recently merged IronPython project and the changes that it inspired in Microsoft’s .NET implementation.

EricLippert01.wmv (video/x-ms-wvx Object)
EricLippert01.wmv (video/x-ms-wvx Object) So… a while ago, I took arjen_lentz to Microsoft to meet with eric_lippert and talk about MySQL and Microsoft together-workingness. Eric talked about his work on LiNQ (if that’s how it’s spelled) and I took pictures. I didn’t really follow, but I bet the data folks in the audience will find this…

Mono stuff
1) A.J. is writing unit tests against Microsoft.Xna. We’ll use these unit tests as a sort of specification for Mono.Xna. Same as the perl6 smoke tests. 2) Speaking of perl6, I saw Audrey Tang at work the other day. She’s traveling around working on the bits. She’s planning to visit Boston and Ximian on May…
