  1. runtimelab

    This repo is for experimentation and exploring new ideas that may or may not make it into the main dotnet/runtime repo.

    For everyone reading this blog post I caution that the conclusions there are at best creative interpretations of the notes written down here: https://github.com/dotnet/runtimelab/blob/feature/async2-exp...

    It is quite literally impossible to draw conclusions on e.g. memory consumption until the work on this, which is underway, makes it into mainline runtime. It's important to understand that the experiment was first and foremost a research to look into modernizing async implementation, and was a massive success. Now once that is proven, the tuned and polished implementation will be made.

    Once it is done and makes into a release (it could even be as early as .NET 10), then further review will be possible.

    RFCs for changes to Rust

  4. .NET Runtime

    .NET is a cross-platform runtime for cloud, mobile, desktop, and IoT apps.

    > And for the transition phase, there has to be interop for async ↔ async2

    For those like me who weren't clear whether `async2` was expected to be a real keyword in the final language, it's not[0].
