[Lazarus] [ Slightly Off Topic ] Background & Why I love Lazarus & Pascal

I think it would be nice to have a community supported IDE for doing
Object Pascal code for creating .NET/Mono executables. As Lazarus is an
excellent community supported IDE to create Object Pascal executables,
enhancing it to be able to do this for CIL would be a great achievement
regarding the (possible/likely) future way of computing. Delphi Prism
(recently still called "Oxygen by Rembjects") is an Object Pascal
compiler that creates CIL code.

Of course I know that such a project is not easy to do all, and the
compatibility to the current "native" Lazarus would be not perfect (as
Prism is not at all perfectly compatible with Delphi).
