Hello I'm reading newspeak spec and I like the idea of immutable strings. Now what does it really bring to us?
Eliot, I read your answer and (like Colin probably) I didn't understand if you were speaking about immutable objects in Smalltalk, or of immutable strings (as in Java, where you have immutable java.lang.String objects and use java.lang.StringBuffer to obtain a restricted kind of mutability).
What family does newspeak fall in?
