C# Roadmap

[Chris Geer]

After reading the new Roadmap on the .NET homepage
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/productinfo/roadmap.aspx
) I was wondering how all of the changes proposed to the
C# language are going to be handled through the ECMA. Is
Microsoft going back to the ECMA to try and change the
standard or are they branching off on their own with a
proprietary version?

C# language are going to be handled through the ECMA.
