    So this was mentioned in the Unite Keynote. I understand we will be able to write our own Unity jobs in C# (is this correct)? When will we get access to this and is there any more information about such functionality?

    There is no timeline set for this right now and no further information, sorry.
    But it will most likely hit after 5.6 since 5.5 is planned to release soonish and then 5.6 goes into beta and no new features will be added to it once that happens.

    Thanks Schubkraft. Really interested in this but will have to be patient. Any pointers on what's the best place to monitor for news on this? The roadmap, the blogs, the experimental forums...

    Probably all of it. Considering our recent approach to new bigger features there'll be a blog about it with an experimental build and discussions in the sub forum (probably experimental scripting preview).

    So stay tuned! We're excited to get this into your hands too!
