Hello,

I looked at the introduction on Vala
(just skimmed it).

There it's written:

  - Programs written in Vala should have broadly similar performance to those
    written directly in C, whilst being easier and faster to write and 
maintain. 

  - A Vala application can do nothing that a C equivalent cannot. Whilst Vala
    introduces a lot of language features that are not available in C, these are
    all mapped to C constructs, although they are often ones that are difficult
    or too time consuming to write directly. 

Both sound very interesting.
It looks like using C for speed then will not be necessarily.

Can the shotwell programmers confirm/affirm the above two statements?


Ciao,
   Oliver
