Programmer skill and effort really does matter ;-)

Yes, more so, than any inherent language disadvantage, perhaps, which happens to be the general lesson from the ICFP contests as well. Any idea if other languages have seen similar efforts?

FreePascal and Smart Effiel, somewhat - and there have been excellent individual efforts with Lua and Tcl and ... imo the Haskell Cafe discussions and wiki have been a more open and shared learning experience than we usually see, and maybe some of the success stems from that collaboration and competition. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
