Of course, you could also try writing system software in a language like Oberon, where two guys could create a language, a compiler, a GUI, an OS, and the hardware to run it on, in a couple of years, while teaching.
Note that Wirth is currently writing a new edition of Project Oberon, with a new FPGA-based computer.

- justin66 13y agoBased on the last Wirth-related thread, I'm pretty sure it's done and it is just a matter of the documentation getting out there (or not). Start here: http://www.inf.ethz.ch/personal/wirth/ProjectOberon/index.html http://www.inf.ethz.ch/personal/wirth/ProjectOberon/index.ht... But I'm pretty sure the specifics of the FPGA he's running on are not well documented yet. I would be happy to be corrected on that point. In any case, it's a super cool project.
