> There is is a not invented here culture at Microsoft Redmond which includes being hostile to Microsoft Research. I'm 100% okay with criticism about things and think it's a good when people voice it, but this is not based in reality. MSR (and Don) work together with different groups in Azure and and the developer division. It's not perfect - we are a large, multinational corporation with the same problems in communication across organizations as any large, multinational corporation - but calling the relationship hostile is misleading, harmful to the F# community, harmful to those of us who work on F#, and harmful to F# growth. I really don't appreciate spreading this sort of stuff.
