 Hello Jane,

newsgroup yet. However I think Andrei's working on it and Don should have a patch in time for TDPL going out ;b

FWIW, I think there is a kernel of truth in the original claim. People tend to agree evey time Walter proposes a new feature such as built-in regexps - yes, they were removed shortly afterwards. But when bearophile or some retard propose some features from functional languages that are natural extensions to existing ones, everyone hates them and tells us to go back to our ivory towers.

Help save the elephants, hippopotamuses, walruses, mammoths and narwhals and say NO to ivory towers. Build them no more, live in them no more and please don't tell anybody to go back to them. Justin Johansson
