   Interesting. Any reason it sounds so much like "Haskell"?

   I've survived the Windows 3.1 SDK, so please stop patronizing me :)

   Well, I've been using OPA for quite some time and it rocks. Caveat: I'm a member of the OPA team. But it still rocks.

   Nothing wrong with that. I believe that everybody wants fast machine-code compilers to exist. However, experience shows that, at least in presence of sufficient RAM and for code that runs long enough, the combination of VM + JIT beats fast

   IIRC, the next JVM will indeed offer a new operation that allows tail calls (not exactly tailrec). However, this operation is incompatible with the Java security model (what you're allowed to do depends on what's above you in the stack -- t

   Afaik (and according to Xavier Leroy), it's not planned in mainstream. Now, implementation of typeclasses is pretty-well documented, so if anyone's willing to finance OCamlPro on this, I don't think there's any technological or scientific b

   We might even release it, eventually :)

    OPA, which happens to be a "truly" web language (i.e. server & client).

    Nice one. Now, how do we manage to make every single webpage IE Chrome frame compatible?

    Haven't checked it yet, but calculating on the server, in particular with Python as a macro language, sounds like a can of worms: doesn't it make very easy for any malicious user to DoS your server?

    HyperCard? In my recollection, this was an absolutely great piece of software -- and it's high time somebody produced something as good, but for modern userland development.

    One point seems to be missing: web applications that do have a web front are actually distributed not only on the servers, but also on the clients. This makes reasoning on reliability or security even harder.

    I'm not exactly sure how they do it in Links these days. If they still take the naive approach to continuations, yes, that's a huge security hole. However, there are moderately simple ways to make this security hole magically disappear. You

    I haven't checked in some time, but they used to embed the complete continuation (if you don't know what's a continuation, you can just consider it's the stack) in the URL. It's a very nice and very natural mechanism, which gives them lots

    Caveat: I do work there, both on OPA and with OPA. Details are not public, but I can confirm that we have several medium-to-large applications in OPA (CMS, B2B, B2C, ...) plus a number of smaller ones (games, productivity tools). Compared t

    Don't. Restart from scratch. If you continue with this programmer, he'll never support your code anyway.

    Service looks good but the main page needs work: explanations are impossible to understand if you don't already know what the service is all about. Good luck with the rest!
