Posted By: Adam Kinney | May 1st, 2007 @ 3:31 PM

Tim Heuer had a chance to sit down with John Lam and Tomas Matousek from the Common Language Runtime team. John finally breaks his silence publically about what he has been working on since coming to Microsoft earlier this year. He explains what the concepts around the Dynamic Language Runtime (DLR) are about, what challenges the team has faced while working on Python and Ruby implementations. Listen/watch to what John and Tomas have to say about Silverlight and how that will bring code execution in the browser in a cross-platform way.
