I'm bored, it's a cloudy day, and I can't stand Ada.

This is about the most formal announcement there'll be of a new, still
unnamed language. I'll bet that almost every programmer's tastes can
be satisfied by a single language, and I'm willing to go the distance
to find out.

So what do you want in a compiled, imperative, perhaps object-oriented
language? Take C as a starting point for good ideas and feel free to
use parts of any other language. Remember: This isn't Ada. If it gets
too complicated, trash it. Simple is beautiful. Modular design is
beautiful. And above all, remember that this is going to be a language
people can actually like.

Don't bother complaining that there are too many languages already.
I know. I'm just jumping on the bandwagon, with the unusual twist that
the evolving design will incorporate (with credit) the ideas of
programmers around the world. Undue formality is out: I'm not a
standards committee.

I'm not too worried about logistics: if and when this project heats up,
I'll start imposing a bit more organization. Until then, I'll just
archive the discussion.
