Data/Language Integration in .NET (by yag)

As Paul mentions on his blog and Anders discusses on Channel9, we've begun long lead work on some possible post-Whidbey items, including integration of data and language. I have to admit that it's pretty cool to be working with the top language and data architects across the company - another one of the reasons I love being here. I don't know how much I'll talk about this for the next 6 months to a year - the focus really is Whidbey, but it is cool to be able to look that far down the road and really think about the problems.

Update: Thanks for the vote of confidence Bill! Keep those ideas coming...
