Dear All

Just a general comment:

Isn't our objective[**] to create a functional user friendly 
environment/OS, unlike the shit we have to deal with on a daily basis?

UP to now, the idea seems to be to write a revolutionary, friendly 
and functional "OS" and then (correct me if I'm wrong) graft some 
crappy language that never took off onto the top??

If you're going to the not inconsiderable bother of creating your own 
OS, the least you can do is design a language to fit it. If you lack 
the ability .. well .. go home!

Bye, JVS  [** = apart from talking excessively]
