I don't understand why Unix is equated to "cold, dead and static". Sure, that's the case for V7 Unix and descendents. Attempted Unix++ systems like Amoeba, Spri

I don't understand why Unix is equated to "cold, dead and static". Sure, that's the case for V7 Unix and descendents. Attempted Unix++ systems like Amoeba, Spring and Sprite were quite the opposite. Further, if I wanted maximum dynamism and runtime hackability I'd go for a Smalltalk.
