I came across an interview with James Gosling (Inventor of Java), as he talks about Microsoft’s C# and what his thoughts are on it, along with comparing it a little bit to Java. I just found this website slightly interesting and hopefully you will to.

Do you see the two open-source projects coming together?
They may. I mean, I’m sure there’re people looking at what it will take. It’s hard to tell how these things go. The important thing is to come up with a common set of APIs (application programming interfaces). We’ve been working on APIs for the last year and a half. It would have been nice if IBM had actually joined into our open-source effort that’s been going on for a very long time.
