PDC CLR Panel now taking questions

I just saw we got the panel site
live… Jeremy
tells us how this works… But
basically you go here and suggest
questions or topics you want us to address… "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

I know all the folks on the CLR
panel well, so let me give you an idea of what you might want to ask
us…

Anders
Hejlsberg

- How are CLR based generics different than GJ? (Generics in
Java)

Brad
Abrams

- Why is string sealed? Why camel and PascalCasing? Interfaces or base
classes? And other such imponderables?

- What did you do to get the clr to be robust enough to run in Sql
server?

George

NGen?

Jim
Miller
, Architect, CLR

           
- How are we addressing platform and application versioning issues going
forward?

Jonathan
Hawkins
, Lead Program Manager, CLR

           
- Jonathan is our distinguished moderator, so technically he just gets to
dish it out, but if you want,  you
could ask him to explain Jim’s answer to the versioning question
;-)

Patrick

-
What are we doing to make it easier to work with unmanaged memory
in the GC world?

Sean
Trowbridge
