This is good. I have worked with open source languages for decades. I don’t see what closed source languages gain from keeping closed.

Now available for Linux: Viruses and Malware!

Sorry. Couldn't help myself. This may actually indicate a change in direction with MS, given that Ballmer is finally history. I'll be in a wait and see mode with it. MS has a lot of history to get past before much of anything that they do will be welcomed with open arms by the open source communities.
