But there is lots of paid resource in the core Go community which makes not using "middleware" feasible by providing your own. Also of course the Go/C interface is not as clean as is the case in D, so the need for Go-specific middleware is much, much higher. As D can call C linkage libraries, and libc is a library for interfacing to OSes, use it, get the abstraction, pay the (small) price, get someone else to do the maintenance. -- 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
