You clearly didn't read the whole article. If you did, you clearly didn't understand the article. Step back a little bit, fanboy. Microsoft wasn't copying anyone here.

Oh and the PDC session added "compiler as a service", which was very interesting. You should go watch the PDC session on the future of C# and VB. It basically goes through async and compiler as a service idea.
