.NET Is in Beta right now, and will be for a little while. But this is
the .NET environment, the CLR is as fixed as C#, as it has been proponed
as a Standard.

I don't know how long would it take to write a Ruby version that runs on
the .NET VM, but my guess is that both it and Visual Studio .NET could
be ready at about the same time.

Why wait until Activestate does it ? Alter all, I've read some bad stuff
about them right here. Stuff that I hadn't have the chance to confirm,
by the way.

The more I think about this, the more it makes sense to me.
