Tim Rowe told me at COMMON that they are looking at it now that Microsoft is open sourcing the core.

That probably means that by the time I retire in 20 years there may be a release in 4 years.......

Take the plunge and run your .Net apps on Windows and keep the data in i.

Life is short. Run .Net with IBM i !!

PS: Tim, if you're out there give us a reality check on this one :-)

There definitely have been past efforts, for example:

This post on the WEB400 list implies that IBM did get it working to some extent, but never released it:

I haven't found any explicit mention of recent efforts, but with CoreCLR released as open source, I think the door to C# running directly on the i is more open than it ever has been before. (I don't believe it's wide open, just more open than before.)
