- pjmlp 11y agoDidn't you get the memo? It got revamped into Go after a conversation with Oberon-2. :)
- mseepgood 11y agoRobert Griesemer is the Oberon guy in the Go team. He worked for Wirth on Oberon at ETH Zürich.
- pjmlp 11y agoAnyone on the Oberon world should know that. :) I was lucky enough to be able to use Native Oberon back in the day.
- nickpsecurity 11y agoYou can still use it: A2 Bluebottle. I proposed it as a solution to the paranoia of "NSA et al subverted everything! What can we use now and to bootstrap better stuff!?" (raises hand) The well-documented, portable, simple OS and toolchain written by people with no interest in subversion available online for free? Not quite an Ubuntu but more usable than most things people were proposing (eg microcontrollers with hand-written Forth lol). I also thought Modula-2 or Oberon might make a good target for high level languages such as ML or Haskell if we're doing end-to-end safety arguments: one's claims can build on the others.
