Is Active Oberon considered a canon (for lack of a better term) successor to Oberon07 or is it more like Component "Pascal" and just a spin off from an Oberon

Is Active Oberon considered a canon (for lack of a better term) successor to Oberon07 or is it more like Component "Pascal" and just a spin off from an Oberon version?
- pjmlp 6y agoThe linage is more or less as follows: Oberon => Oberon-2 => Component Pascal => Active Oberon => Oberon.NET => Zonnon => Oberon-07 (multiple iterations until 2016) From features think Go (Oberon), D/C# (Active Oberon). Active Oberon provides features for manual memory management (untraced references), async/await (active objects hence the name), lightweight generics, interfaces, exceptions.
