Yes, I tried to work with Zig long before Hare was even an idea. I had hoped that Zig would fill the hole in the ecosystem that Hare is designed to fill, but ultimately I felt that I needed to write Hare. I think that Zig is far too complex and essentially unbounded in scope. A language to replace C needs to be as conservative as C, if not even more considering the coming changes from C2X.
