You have Joe Duffy's blog entries about Midori and one entry back when it was still called M#.
Then there are the little pieces that came to C# from it.
Namely async/await, TPL, the MDIL compiler on Windows 8.x, the .NET Native compiler for UWP, the improved GC control in .NET 4.6 and the planned features for C# 7.1, 7.2 and 8.0 related to more mechanical sympathy.
