Cω - Interesting .NET language
-
Definatly worth checking out, Cω @ Microsoft Research[^] Its similar to C#, but does a great job of bridging the gap between relational and hierarchal data. With Cω, you can run an XPath query or SQL query on any .NET object Hope this isnt a repost

Concepts from Comega are continually being added to the C# langauge. For instance, nullable types with the question mark syntax will be merged into C# 2.0 later this year. If you peruse through Channel9.msdn.com, you'll find that the C# language creator, Anders Heiljsberg, discusses that data-bound applications will be the primary focus of C# 3.0; they will most likely implement some of the query syntax from Comega. One thing I really like about the language is its asynchronous execution syntax in the form of chords. I find dealing with threads and callbacks too low-level for some tasks, I hope to see a similar construct come to C# in the near future.
