Does anyone know if there will be a Perl implementation of .NET, maybe IronPerl?

There used to be an implementation called PerlNet (later called PerlASPX) from ActiveState... unfortunately was retired back in 2005 and is no longer part of their SDK.

IMHO only to show it can be done, or for some research or nich market.
I do not see any need for it on .net
just to be clear: perl is just fine, I have used it on SUn and Linux boxes many times.
I just do not see any interest in having it or any great need it would fill.
I think if there was a market for it we would have it. -
I like Visual Studio, so it would be nice if I had Perl on it. Maybe that doesn't mean .NET. I don't know.

A language does not have to be object oriented to be implemented in .NET or interoperate with .NET.

Isn't F# procedural? It's meant to work with .NET.

F# is a weird mix of functional, procedural and object oriented, implemented in .NET. It has a little bit of everything, all mixed into one.

In all honesty, I despise Perl, and would use it only if I absolutely had to, whether it were a .NET version or not. But that's a personal preference thing. From a wider view point, I think an IronPerl sounds like a good idea, even if I won't use it.
