News from a MS researcher

[Paddy Nixon <Paddy.Nixon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In his most recent paper on "modern concurrency abstractions for c#"
[http://www.luca.demon.co.uk] Luca Cardelli of Microsoft Research
Cambridge states,

.... " We suspect that Occam-style high-level concurrency constructs are
due to resurge".

Given the current open call for mini projects from MSR cambridge to work
on additions to the Common Language Runtime (CLR) I think we might have
supporters and the opportunity to hit the big time.

Any one up for a quick proposal writing effort?

Paddy
