I've looked at the C# draft and was disappointed. A few hours of
browsing revealed several undesired side effects of some features and
considerable lack of exactness in some areas. I reported these
defects through the official ECMA channel and have never received any
reply.
I doubt anyone will be able to implement a C# compiler which is
compatible with the official C# based only on this specification (even
after it has been finished).
