That's awesome, I'm already looking into crossroads-io. I like C because it's that much more readable: There is no magic, you always know where things are and where they are going, in terms of memory and control flow. C++ seems very convenient at first, all the nice standard libraries do have attraction for me but in the end you end up with tons of weird hierarchy magic, friend classes, nested classes, copy constructors and destructors firing at the weirdest places. Now everybody says: "Well you don't have to use those!". Well, true but in practice it doesn't turn out that way.
