There are now many fascinating responses to this thread. This is one of them. My belief is that a comment like this is unlikely to get written by somebody who doesn't already have, possibly buried deep at the back of their mind, one or more ideas for what some of the components of this rethink and new take would be. Those of us who don't blithely dismiss the likelihood of this actually happening would very much appreciate hearing about some of these components. I mean, this thread already contains reasonably solid evidence that a re-write in zig would not be a waste of time. That being the case, if there is more that could be done, beyond that, to further improve the system, then the sooner any such ideas start getting talked about, the better! ------------------------------------------ 9fans: 9fans Permalink: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/Td859d3c6cefc922f-Ma0ee0a0d2d0e3d2b77212df1 Delivery options: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/subscription
