Strong Oppose - The two topics are similar, yes, but differ greatly in scope. The CIL is the Ecma International specification; MSIL is Microsoft's implementation of that specification. There could quite easily be many other implementations of the CIL specification in addition to MSIL. Think of it as the difference between the Common Language Infrastructure and the Common Language Runtime BurntSky 01:08, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
There isn't a lot of microsoft specific information in this article, at least not at the moment. I suggest that for the time being, the articles should be merged and any microsoft specifics can go under a seciton MSIL in the CIL article. If it turns out to get large enough, it can be split off as it's own article. 129.241.107.147 19:38, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
