Hi all,

First I must congratulate Andreas on a _most interesting language - all the power of C++ without the yuk factor.

I've written my impressions of a week spent with Nimrod here:

Any comments welcome - consider this a work-in-progress. And there _definitely has to be a Part II

Hello!

Thanks for doing this, brilliant article. I hope you don't mind but I posted it to reddit :)

Cool! My only regret is the comparison to Pascal. Us humans have problems with multiple dimensions; we keep wanting to collapse them into one!

I do want to do another, based around a case study of implementing something non-trivial.

Nice article. I wasn't aware of lapp, so I grabbed its link and added it to my whishlist for the future. However I want to try implementing such a module at compile time, while lapp and docopt work at runtime.
