[Mono-dev] C# source-to-source compiler

[Liang, Qichang (梁启昌）]

Hi Marek,

Thanks for your clarification, In this case I don't care about
async.... async  is about message passing, right?

Could you please read the email I have written, about Cilk, and see
how feasible is implementing Cilk on C# 4.0?

Cheers,

Qichang
