How about lining up some features for removal. C++, Fortran, and Java are big, complicated languages, that keep getting bigger and more complicated because of the obsession with backward compatibility. D is already a big, complicated language. If people like straighforward (not necessarily simple) languages, then the inference is quite easy. -- Russel. ============================================================================= Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:russel.win...@ekiga.net 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: rus...@winder.org.uk London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder
