.NET (dotGNU too) A new major version of Nemerle language was released. Nemerle features a very high level .NET language with functional programming support. This version brings full support to .NET 2.0 generics and a bunch of other things. After the release of C# 3.0 spec preview it might be interesting to see how could next generation of .NET languages look like.

Query expressions are syntactic sugar that are not worth it, but c# seems to be more extensible now thanks to closures and expression trees. If I understand it correctly, then part of the query expressions ("where ......") is not hardwired into the language, but built on the expression trees feature - the code after "where" is DSL that is translated to e.g. SQL by a library that analyzes its expression tree.
