Just wondering if it would be possible to setup any of the XMOS Chips/Kits to run .NET Micro Framework C# code?

I know that there are licenses involved. But still, it would open a whole new segment for XMOS chips...
Just wondering, that's all...

.NET Micro Framework C# port?

I think it's interpreted at run-time, making it rather slow.

Yes, it is interpreted, but still, not slow as many people think. At least not from the comments I read over the internet.
Anyway, just wondering, that's all. ;-)

Turn a nice fast real-time chip into a slow non-deterministic machine. What on earth would be the benefit?
P.S. I have plans to do exactly that with a byte code interpreter than runs C/C++ code compiled with GCC. But that is only of relevance if you want to add external RAM/FLASH for a large program store.
