Here is a counterpoint: The C language is not finished, and many programmers like myself would like to see the language continue to evolve and grow in reasonable ways, especially given the fact we'll keep on writing it for a while to come. The ISO C people should be commended for doing their hard work. Alright. Glad we cleared this whole thing up.

> we'll keep on writing it for a while to come Nope; I will be writing in "it". What you obviously want is to be writing in something other than "it". You basically want to be able to write Rust, Go or D into a file that has a .c suffix and is passed through a preprocessor.
