Closing Ceremony

with Mads Torgersen and Dustin Campbell
Just like most things over the past several years, the VB people who are looking for information get stuffed into the last 60 seconds of a 30 minute video like an afterthought.
that's because only programmers on their deathbed care about VB
@fuddyduddy So apparently being a C# developer means you have to be an arrogant, pompous jerk with a holier-than-thou attitude.
If Microsoft has a strategy to eradicate VB then they should just come out with it publicly. Since they haven't - and continue to "say" they're developing both languages - there's no reason why any VB dev should be coerced into throwing away years of learning and subsequently spending (wasting) countless hours converting projects to C#.
The title of this session/recording is completely misleading. It should be C# 6, All Things Rosyln, and a passing mention of VB14.
I'd agree that the 30 second vb 'oh yeah' mention is a slap...
Hello everyone! I was super bummed we did not talk more about VB as well. Totally not an 'oh yeah' moment I promise: just an oversight. I'm at Ignite so I gathered up Mads and Dustin and we shot a whole video on just VB features. Should be up soon! My apologies!
