    Chatroom Highlights

    ## What about ARM?

    is ## for questions?

    ## @halr9000 did you find a goat to come on the show as a special guest?

    ## jsnover needs more edge in his life

    ## PowerShell is dating bikers.

    ##Jeffrey, where were y'all hiding Ken Van Hyning all these years?

    ##jeffrey where did you get inspired to bulid powershell?

    ok, if you have q’s, then as sqlvariant has shown, please add ## to the front!

    ## Is that all?

    ## ARM support?

    ## SSHRM

    ## remember OneGet and the legal team? :stuck_out_tongue:

    juneb: prefix questions w/ ##

    ## Please tell us more about the governance model.

    ## how did legal allow MIT license?

    ## Were there lessons learned working with legal/folks unfamiliar with OSS?  I know Chef offers a webinar for legal folks, it seems like it would be helpful for large orgs like Microsoft to help sell and teach this

    ## Will the roles of team members change?

    ## How can I get paid to work on open source powershell? :-P

    ## I second Rich's question: what's with the release timing?

    ## When will core help be open-sourced?

    ## wait, is that why CIM?

    ## Can we get an explaination on the Powershell RFC Process for changes ##

    ## since we're now taking comments, is the team aware that some nuget packages (like Microsoft.Management.Infrastrucutre) are missing XML doc files?

    ## For bugs should we still use uservoice, connect, or github issues now?

    ### We noticed version 6 on PowerShell for Linux, when can we expect ver 6 on Winders ###

    ### is there any PowerShell features that don't work in PS Core?

    ## For Linux services would you expect to use Get-Services or a new cmdlet like Get-LinuxServices?

    ##This is why we need Out-DataTable to be in PowerShell core!!  :slightly_smiling_face:

    ## when might we see remoting to Azure/Office 365 tenants from Mac/Linux?

    ## will powershell run hurd

    ###I need mah winforms in Linux, can we get System.Windows.Forms ports to linux plz

    ## my thing about XML doc files

    ## yeah but what about rasbian

    ## Raspbian!

    ## Yes, it was around Raspbian/linux

    ## NEED ARM!

    ## need xml doc files in all the nuget pkgs

    ## Sooooo, how do I get PowerShell on my Chromebook?

    ## Do we use UserVoice or GitHub issues?

    ## will we be able to organize assets in our modules for different platforms?  or will module authors be required to manage that on their own?

    ### will script block loging work with syslog?

    ## Well SQL Server is on Linux so they have a business case :champagne:

    ## will we be able to organize assets in our modules for different platforms?  or will module authors be required to manage that on their own?

    ## what is next for Snover and team?  e.g. Drawbridge, rewriting kernel, on-premise DSC mgmt system

    ## e.g., right now I have to manually load 32 or 64 bit native dlls in my modules; will I need to manually load linux vs windows as well?

    ## any thoughts on deeper PS integration with Python etc, beyond strings?

    ## will get a restapi  for AD, and will we get Join domains cmdlets for powershell on mac

    ## OOH. DSC using powershell on linux, instead of the separate DSC package???

    ##Have there been any advancements in DSC on Linux?

    ## DSC will we see a revamp of the DSC for linux to kill off python ##

    ##Are you aware of any other vendors writing psmodules for Linux right now?

    ##Snover, was PSDirect one of the drivers for PSnix?  Being able to manage Win/Nix on Nano server Hyper-V with one language

    ##or MAC?

    ## will we see modules to manage bind9 or dhcpd or other services or MYSQL?

    ##Forgive me if this was already answered, but can we now powershell remote to Linux?

    ## do we require !#/usr/local/bash

    ## will there ever be a means to #! powershell in a script

    ## what about text enconding

    ## what can we expect in the next 6, 12 months

    ## Yes, upcoming roadmap??

    ## what about an update to the conhost terminal in windows ? Will it support more then 256 colour?

    ## ONE MORE!  What's next for Snover and team?

    ##Ask about Ken Van Hyning (SQL Tools team) where were they hiding him?!?!

    ## What question is he up to? One thing on an island?

    ## Oh you guys don't ask the last question any more?

    ###Whats next, will they take DIR away from us?

    ## As of PS5+, does Write-Host write to stream or no?

    ###Found it

    ## Is the redirect operator modified in linux or does it behave as per normal?

    ## Wouldn't this be the role of .NET Standard??

    regarding Aliases there is an open issue here at  https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/issues/929

    here's the PR @jsnover mentioned https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/pull/1901

    I've suggested this as a resolution https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/issues/929#issuecomment-239697927

    ARM!!! https://media.giphy.com/media/HJN39I1q6EBKE/giphy.gif

    @itadder the hard part is that other than ASP.NET http://ASP.NET Core there is no presentation stack for .NET Core.  VSCode gets a pass because it uses Electron / Chromium / Html / JS

    http://electron.atom.io/apps/

    And you can actually write Electron using C#:  https://github.com/kexplo/electron-edge
