As has been said many times before, it should not be the language's job to enforce indentation. This should be handled by customizable code editors. Any programmer in his/her right mind will use indentation. So why enforce it through syntax rules?
The discussion about using indentation as block delemeter is a holly war about personal preferences IMHO. There is a strong argument against enforced indentation: Automatic code generation is hard or even impossible in languages like Python. I don't think it makes any sense in languages with generics. Much more important is an orthogonal and consistent syntax... Peter
