He is obviously pretty clueless about modern fast and expressive dynamic+static languages, frightened by type systems, but predicts the rise of DSLs. He completely forgets about threads/fibers and non-blocking async IO. No major advances? Come on. > Any thoughts about how this relates to the future of Parrot? Nothing. If parrot would fit into the category of a backend to a modern fast and expressive dynamic or static language maybe. I'm thinking of other languages which would fit here. No, not Python, Perl, Scala or Haskell :) More like io, cola (idst), felix, haxe, lua/neko, potion, go, dart, f#, ... Some of them are faster than the speed of light (C) already, and easier to work with. -- Reini Urban http://cpanel.net/ http://www.perl-compiler.org/ _______________________________________________ http://lists.parrot.org/mailman/listinfo/parrot-dev
