I’d want this if only because I’m stuck maintaining old industrial software written in VB6 (it is omnipresent in manufacturing) and I’d like to have a development experience that is actually somewhat usable.

(No, TwinBasic isn’t adequate. No, a VB.NET migration isn’t feasible.)

As much as I love VB.NET for what it could have been, its definitely not the same.
