[DotGNU]Ignoring C#

I disagree outright, if we don't do something with this - MS owns the
net anyway.  If C# takes off, then we've got an alternative.  If C
doesn't take off, then our insurance policy was bought in vain and we
have an extra language to leverage for our own purposes.  But ignoring
C# won't help us - ignoring MS' authority WILL help us.

I wonder if there's a middle ground in which one
ignores C# until there's solid evidence that it's
garnered more than minor developer support.
The goal being to avoid helping boost a language
that might flop on its own if non-Microsoft forces
didn't endorse it with an implementation.
