Will the new compiler allow targeting of both 1.0 & 2.0 profile ? What I
mean to say is, will there be something like vbnc/gbnc (bad name, I know) or
a command line switch to specify whether to emit an assembly that references
the 1.0 (1.1) or 2.0 system assemblies (and allow/disallows 2.0 constructs
such as generics, nullable types, ...) ? 

Sorry if this was answered before...
