When will mere mortals be allowed to download Whidbey/.net SDK 2.0/C# 2.0?

[David Laub]

A zillion developers including me are sold on "generics"
When can we start developing with them?

This was answered further down the NG. Here is a copy+paste:

If you want them now you can get them in Gyro, which is a part of the
MS Shared Source CLI. You can find it here:

Mmm by now you could download SSCLI [1] implementation
of .NET (aka Rotor) and apply Gyro [2] patch to use generics
on it. Otherwise you could try Mono [3] that has a work in progress
implementation of generics (check out the source code for gmcs
compiler and the CVS repository for examples).
