Maybe, rewriting some parts of boating complicated leaky code (e.g. build.c:)
isn't bad idea and suitable in this situation. You don't need much bindings for
editor and Vala shouldn't be a pain. But AFAIK Geany don't use GObject and
writing on Vala may cause deep refactoring that will take your time. Many things
in Geany could be rewritten, simplified and improved and it's definitely going
to be refactoring while using Vala.
To improve maintainability pure C code could be pre-generated before release
for faster and easier build without vala.
Yep, this is the default for the Autotools built-in support as well, so
no extra work to do it.
From the other side you could scare good C programmers...
True, but I suspect good C programmers will have little trouble with a
simple language like Vala.
About RHEL: defenitely can say that Vala 0.20 works. And some things could be
easily compiled.
Cool, good to know.
