This thread belongs to FPGA ;) And there is no roadmap when the first OpenMoko phone would have a FPGA inside - so isn't it a little too early to start a flame ware about languages to use with a FPGA now? > I would rather like to see some procedual Basic, like FreeBasic or > QBasic, on this little buddy. Oh, I would prefer Python or maybe ruby and when we want to do parallel computing on a FPGA, Erlang would worth a look *G*. In erlang is also written the good jabber server ejabberd. :) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erlang_programming_language Just for fun - back to the roots of telephonie server: "erlang - the movie" http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-5830318882717959520 > Benefits: More applications. > Everyone and his dog can produce decent apps and games with Basic as the > learning curve isnt so steep as with C++/Java. When everyone and his dog should be able to produce a app, squeak would be a tool for them, but again, this thread is about FPGA. BTW programming languages: But does e.g. debian care which language is used? NO. So I don't see the need to start a language flameware now - and the OpenMoko SDK will answer which languages we will use to start with :) And remember everybody will be free to install the language that he likes... IMHO there is no reason why to discuss which language is the best - different tasks gives reason to deside from case to case which language to choose. Cheers, rob Markus, one wish: Could you please use your MUA (email client) in a way that it use References in the email header in a proper way? With out that your mails could not be sorted into the thread. mercie _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/community
