All,
One thing that I think we should change is how we refer to the ‘weak’ type hints. The word ‘weak’ has a negative ring to it, and considering this is how the language behaves across the board it’s a pretty bad name for this feature. Personally I think we should go for ‘dynamic’ when we document it, as this is the common way to refer to this behavior (dynamic languages). We could also consider going for ‘lax’ or ‘lenient’ as the opposite of ‘strict’, although I think we can easily do without introducing a new word into the vocabulary here. Thoughts? Zeev
