+Q: Should someone work on a GCC front-end to C#?
+
+A: I would love if someone does, and we would love to help anyone that
+ takes on that task, but we do not have the time or expertise to
+ build a C# compiler with the GCC engine. I find it a lot more fun
+ personally to work on C# on a C# compiler, which has an intrinsic
+ beauty.
+
+ We can provide help and assistance to anyone who would like to work
+ on this task.
+
+Q: Should someone make a GCC backend that will generate CIL images?
+
+A: I would love to see a backend to GCC that generates CIL images. It
+ would provide a ton of free compilers that would generate CIL
+ code. This is something that people would want to look into
+ anyways for Windows interoperation in the future.
+
+ Again, we would love to provide help and assistance to anyone
+ interested in working in such a project.
+
+Q: What about making a front-end to GCC that takes CIL images and
+ generates native code?
+
+A: I would love to see this, specially since GCC supports this same
+ feature for Java Byte Codes. You could use the metadata library
+ from Mono to read the byte codes (ie, this would be your
+ "front-end") and generate the trees that get passed to the
+ optimizer.
+
+ Ideally our implementation of the CLI will be available as a shared
+ library that could be linked with your application as its runtime
+ support.
+
+ Again, we would love to provide help and assistance to anyone
+ interested in working in such a project.
+
+Q: But would this work around the GPL in the GCC compiler and allow
+ people to work on non-free front-ends?
+
+A: People can already do this by targeting the JVM byte codes (there
+ are about 130 compilers for various languages that target the JVM).
