Hm.. I don't really buy that argument. I see you and Walter removing/witholding things (incomparability operators, logical operator overloading) from the language, because: "I can't imagine a use for it and removing it makes the language simpler." Meanwhile, you're keeping C syntax for function-pointers around, and I'm missing syntactic sugar for my tribool. The fact that you or I think there isn't a use for a feature, doesn't mean there isn't one. Programmers keep finding new and unintended uses for language features, which is a good thing. And if you want to simplify the language, I wouldn't start with the unary + when you've still got all that C stuff around. -- Michiel Helvensteijn
