This is really exciting move. I wonder if this would make compiling the .NET core easier in OSX and Linux?


> We will be adding Linux and Mac support soon (perhaps with your help!) so you can use MSBuild to build the open source .NET projects on your preferred platform.

looks like it


Interestingly, Roslyn already includes its own parsing/handling of visual studio solution files: http://source.roslyn.codeplex.com/#Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.Wo...


Which is built on the MSBuild API. Which makes it a bit annoying to use without the pre-release Visual Studio right now, as Roslyn is built against an MSBuild assembly that doesn't exist on my machine.
