Re: Declaration syntax

[Boyd]

If you're out for easier code readability, then I'd recommend not 
to bother with syntax too much. It'll only get you a slight 
readability increase at most, and you'll piss off anyone who 
doesn't agree with you, or doesn't want to refactor his code.

I've been experimenting with language design a bit and I found 
that a much bigger issue with coding, is that we still use files 
and plain text. An IDE where code is represented in a simple tree 
and saved in a database, for example, would improve things 
dramatically, and no language changes would be necessary.
