I know it's tangential to the main discussion, but since .NET was called out by name, I would like to get your thoughts on this. What would you say are the biggest concerns with the .NET setup? Here's how I understand the current state. There's a single source package for each major version of .NET (dotnet6.0, dotnet7.0.). That source is compiled into the complete .NET SDK+Runtime for each version. There are no source or binary dependencies between versions. Each version is built/updated independently. Only the first build for each major version requires a full bootstrap (using prebuilt binaries), but that's a one time. Subsequent builds of each .NET major version use the previous build of that major version of .NET. With that context, what primary concerns do you think we should be focusing on?
