Re:Microsoft takes .NET open source and cross-platform by frowaway001 on Thursday November 13, 2014 @01:37PM (#8603179)
I'm not sure comparing C# to Python makes sense.

  a) Microsoft is in an excellent position to make such 
     changes, unlike Python, because Microsoft shops will 
     largely do whatever Microsoft tells them.

     Just have a look at how often they have incompatibly 
     changed the standard library used by C#.

  b) Not every language has to botch the transition as badly
     as Python designers did.
