Still rumor and I don't expect to see anything on that front for some time. Why buy the cow when the milk is free, not like Xamarin is flirting with enabling Java on iOS or something - they are sold out to C#/F# so Microsoft is reaping the benefit.

More evidence, Xamarin announced their Evolve conference dates, times and prices and when it goes on sale - if Microsoft were buying them they would hold off on letting several thousand people spend thousands of dollars for a dev conference that would later be tantamount to a bait and switch.
