Miguel de Icaza is the foremost expert in the CLR that doesn't work for Microsoft. If he wanted to work for Microsoft in any capacity, I would bet anything that they would roll out the red carpet for him. You're either projecting or you don't know what you're talking about.

He wanted to work for Microsoft, but they didn't employ him (to be fair, he was not US citizen and he didn't fulfil the H1-B requirements).

After that, he started Gnome (complete with the CORBA-fiasco) and later Mono.
