Invalid due date?

I think (and hope) the due date is an accident. It mentions the year 2080.

Context/link?

https://github.com/dotnet/csharplang/milestone/8

I thought the milestone was linked.

It looks like somebody has just repurposed the last two digits of the year.

[neville-nazerane]

Either that was intentional or an AI like excel's.

IIRC, it's intentional. C# team doesn't want to declare proper due date.

[yaakov-h]

True, but they also didn’t have to specify one at all. The field is optional.

[YairHalberstadt]

I'm afraid it's correct. C# 8.0 is planned for early 2080 all going well.

[neville-nazerane]

Ok, I just had to make sure. And I am afraid too.

True, but they also didn’t have to specify one at all.

But if it's there, then no one needs to ask..

Doesn't look like that plan worked out.

think the team was going to match langversion with the year (#2199 (comment)) but just got ahead of schedule.
