They've done a lot of work on it since then. There is now a version which is
integrated into Microsoft's Visual Studio.NET 2003 - complete with syntax
highlighting, method tips, project control, interactive debugging etc.
They're also working on a version that is integrated with the open source
Eclipse IDE.

The only thing that is missing for developing Windows Desktop applications
is a forms designer. That is no big deal however - I design the forms
interactively with the C# Forms designer and then call the CP code which
does all the real work from there.
