Well, Microsoft has always been about "our stuff is first class citizen, everything else is second class citizen". You could see that in the 2000s when Microsoft claimed Windows 2003 to be multiplatform because it could run binaries from windows 95, windows 98, windows 2000 and windows xp.

What happened with .net is that C# is first class, F# is second class, and everything else is third class citizen at best (when not directly attacked via patent litigation).

I'm late to the party, but has Microsoft sued anyone over doing things with .Net?
