<div> here's an interesting rant: <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.xent.com/pipermail/fork/Week-of-Mon-20091109/054578.html">http://www.xent.com/pipermail/fork/Week-of-Mon-20091109/054578.html</a>
from one Jeff Bone. I think he's wrong on implementation and right on
general direction. He wants current stuff (web, files, regular
expressions) to be easy, but (IMO) he's wrong to think that the only
way to get there is to put in direct linguistic support. Why this rant
might be relevant to our discussion is that it shows what some current
programmers look for in a system and that if one can do what he wants
one has a better chance of competing to grow the community, and growing
the community can help in reaching other goals.</div>
