If someone should try making an interpreted C# language for any platform, Microsoft is giving the go-ahead, years after ECMA declared C# an industry standard.

This is okay. The Microsoft side is now clearer.
But if you go on http://www.ecma-international.org/publications/standards/Ecma-334.htm
there is a PatentStatementList that says:
"HP will grant ... licenses on reasonable terms and conditions, for its patent(s) that are necessary for
the implementation of the ECMA Standard."
What about the HP side? Are they still involved in C# and the CLI.

Languages should belong to the community even if the primary community sponsor and developer effort is from one company. It is good to see that Microsoft is starting to understand the benefit of more Open licenses for some of their technologies.
