Hi John!
>What do you think?
>>To be honest I don't see the sence. There are java language and the 
gnu-classpath libraries why rename stuff that's already there?
Beside that I think tintol could be a vacuum cleaner or something like 
that but not a language ;-)
You're right, gnome guys tinker since a long time on switching to 
another language since C does not fit their needs anymore (I always 
claimed that its stupid to use C in favour of Objective-C or even C++). 
The most likely winner is Mono in what I've heard and I am not too sad 
about this descision since it allows very good integration with native 
libraries. On the other side I am a bit afraid because in fact Mono 
could be dangerous and to taget a very big and important project on top 
of Mono could be even more danger...
