Boo scares up open-source developers
eWeek | at | by Mike
Work on the Microsoft-friendly open-source Boo language is nearing completion. Boo is a new object-oriented statically typed programming language for the Microsoft CLI with a Python inspired syntax and a special focus on language and compiler extensibility, said Rodrigo Barreto de Oliveira, the creator of the language.
As an open-source language that targets Microsoft technology, Boo joins an increasing number of open source projects that are Microsoft-friendly. De Oliveira said a 1.0 release of Boo is about three to six months away.
