[Mono-list] C++/CLI

Hi!

What an ugly language have they created... I always considered C++ to be
very ugly in terms of code syntax. Now it looks like they've "improved" it
even more (note the % and ^ operators, new keywords, new templates, new
restrictions, new side effects, new rules for type coercion, new concepts
and other features which make it even more difficult to read and
understand).

My suggestion: don't go with this idea - let it die. Use C# instead - it can
be a bit slower sometimes, but is definitely more scalable in terms of
maintenance and programmer productivity.
