My choice of .Net is a selfish one. I think Visual Studio 2008 is the

an extensible platform where MyMigrator can snap in.
MyMigrator's currently spits out C#, and for a few functions, VB. But it is
designed so that you can add other emitters like VB and Java. Again, I have
no interest myself in anything but C#.
At various times and endeavors there have been tools that have been
easily the ones people find most productive to use. Sometimes
bosses don't care whether what we produce is useable by all. Often
we don't care if what we produce lasts decades or not. (This
paragraph includes other work besides programming)
In general, I want my work to be useable by a wide variety of
platforms. Even the old programming tools are easy - a modern tool
that was close to as productive as C#, but which is more widely
useable is still a big step upward in the easy part of programming.
(The hard part is finding out what the users really want/need).
And I should explain why I want to take this offline.
That's fine - you don't need to reply. My response is for the
newsgroup.
