C# and generics covariance

I was wondering if anybody in this newsgroup are following the status of
covariance in C#? As far as I'm concerned, generics covariance is not
supported with C# 3.0 - unfortunately, as I'd be a really nice feature.

It's not in C# 3, and it's only supported on the CLR with respect to
interfaces.

Eric Lippert from the C# team is currently writing a series of blog
articles on it (current situation and possible futures) - it's worth
tracking them:

Thanks for the link - interesting information on his blog (although I'd
hoped he was further with the "variance" series).
