As we discussed during the summit and is mentioned on the wiki:
Ah, found it.
Few dependencies
Fast
Small
Binding facilities for most high level languages are common
The ability to tie a C library into anything and everything is the biggest
reason to use C over C++, using and binding to C++ libraries (especially in
most languages - they tend to be written in C) is a real headache - actually
beyond a headache, most times it's just a recipe for failure.
C++ can do C bindings as well, can't it? Our bindings should certainly be C.
Doesn't C++ share the other advantages?

What? I mean binding coapp to other higher level languages primarily
written in C. Perl, Python, PHP, Lua, D etc.
and if we write it in C - yes a C++ binding would be easy as well.
Thanks,
