Description
I am building quite a few projects, some of them are dependent on other projects. Because it is a mix of managed and native projects, i cannot always use project references to express dependencies. Is there a way to express this with Microsoft.Build.Traversal, making sure that dependent projects are built in order, while independent are built in parallel?

Start by investigating Microsoft.Build.Traversal and how it represents dependencies between managed and native projects. Done means dependent projects build in order while independent projects can build in parallel, without relying on project references.
