Agreed, and I have no intention of warring. I hesitated even to post my previous message -- I declined to do following Felix's first post to the thread -- but as long as Felix is raising the flag, I decided should add my voice. It will not be the end of the world if C++ is used in Puppet. It would certainly bring advantages along with its disadvantages, and it's PL that has to weigh those. I just hope they will indeed give careful consideration to the question, for I do not think it is in any way a clear or easy decision.
